Popis: SUMMARY A dual purpose stage has been constructed for an EM6G 100 kV transmission electron microscope. With this stage the composition of thin films and bulk specimens can be determined by X-ray microanalysis. With thin films a change of specimen cartridge then enables a full analysis of crystal defects in the film to be made using tilt controls incorporated in the stage. Modifications to the stage to reduce background effects in X-ray microanalysis spectra are also described. The alternative use of this system in the bulk analysis of specimens by an X-ray fluorescence technique is also discussed.
