Quantitative X-ray fluorescence (XRF) and particle induced X-ray emission (PIXE)
techniques have been developed mostly for the elemental analysis of homogeneous bulk or …

Microscopic X-ray fluorescence (micro-XRF) is a versatile tool in environmental analysis. We
review work done in this field from 2008 to 2010 and highlight new aspects. Overall, there is …

Confocal micro-beam X-ray fluorescence microscope was constructed. The system was
assembled from commercially available components–a low power X-ray tube source …

The High Renaissance marks one of the most significant and prolific periods of artistic
production in painting. Artists of this epoch advanced many aspects of pictorial art that …

A semiconductor device, a microSD card, was measured by using two XRF instruments. 2D
elemental images were obtained using a micro‐XRF system with a spatial resolution of 10 …

Confocal micro X-ray fluorescence (CXRF) is gaining considerable interest due to its ability
to provide compositional and spatial information that are typically obtained using standard …

In recent years, liquid-phase microextraction (LPME) has become one of the most valuable
techniques for the preconcentration and separation of trace and ultratrace elements. LPME …

This is the latest review covering atomic spectrometric activities using XRF techniques. It
offers a comprehensive review of instrumentation and detectors, matrix correction and …

Over the past two decades, numerous X-ray micro-beam studies have been published
addressing the nondestructive investigation of chemical element distribution in condensed …

Polycapillary x-ray focusing devices are built from hundreds of thousands of bent
microcapillaries that are stacked into hexagonal arrays. We show that intrinsic point defects …
