What Does EMP Stand For?
EMP stands for Electron Micro Probe
EMP, or Electron Micro Probe, is an analytical technique used in materials science and geology to determine the elemental composition of small volumes of solid materials. It employs focused electron beams to stimulate X-ray emission from the sample, allowing for precise quantitative analysis of elements at micro-level resolutions. This method is crucial for applications requiring detailed chemical characterization, enabling researchers to investigate mineralogy, metallurgy, and semiconductor materials effectively.
