ChromaCL2™ iBSED: Cathodoluminescence Imaging for SEM

The ChromaCL2™ iBSED detector provides real-time scanning electron microscope (SEM) cathodoluminescence imaging.

Features

The ChromaCL2™ iBSED detector is a color cathodoluminescence imaging device for scanning electron microscopes. In many petrographic and earth science applications, color cathodoluminescence (CL) imaging can reveal geochemical operations.

Macro- and micro-textures of sedimentary rocks can be examined, including the sediment source, degree of compaction, diagenetic history, differences between auriferous and detrital minerals, history of cementation, and authenticity.

Topographic, compositional, and color CL images are captured simultaneously with a single electron beam pass.

Easy to operate

Color cathodoluminescence images aid in the identification of geochemical differences.

High-efficiency detection enables the shortest time-to-data, images with the maximum spatial resolution, and less data misinterpretation owing to e-beam damage.

Cathodoluminescence Explained. Episode 5: CL Data Analysis. This webinar focuses on the importance of CL data analysis, which may include spatial, spectral, and angular information, or any combination thereof. The importance of data analysis of such CL data can be nearly as important as data acquisition and can reveal many interesting characteristics of a specimen including the influence of constituent concentration and distribution, defect density, plasmonic or photonic modes, and more. During this webinar, analysis of data drawn from various specimens is performed, their results discussed, and the benefits of such analysis demonstrated. Video Credit: Gatan, Inc.
