Backscatter imaging is primarily a compositional imaging mode, although it can be used on samples which exhibit excessive charging or on samples which provide poor SE images. The BSE detector can ...

Identifying hydrogen and hydride phases can be difficult using traditional microanalysis methods. Because of its atomic structure, hydrogen does not release distinctive X-rays when exposed to ...

X-ray backscatter AIT uses a narrow beam of X-ray photons with energies, hv, less than 100 keV. 2 There are five basic interactions that can occur as X rays penetrate material. These are the ...

What is Electron Backscatter Diffraction (EBSD)? Electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD), also known as backscatter Kikuchi diffraction (BKD), is a powerful characterization technique used to analyze ...

Most established methods for underwater imaging require tethering for power and communication, making them less suitable for long-term in situ observations. A project at MIT has now developed a ...

In order to evaluate radiation exposures such as those produced by advanced imaging technology (AIT) systems, and to make it possible to estimate health effects that might result from those exposures, ...
