What Does EPM Stand For?

EPM stands for Electron Probe Microscopy

EPM, or Electron Probe Microscopy, is a sophisticated analytical technique used to characterize the surface and near-surface properties of materials at the microscopic level. This method utilizes focused electron beams to generate high-resolution images and obtain chemical compositions through energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). EPM is widely employed in fields such as materials science, semiconductor manufacturing, and nanotechnology, enabling researchers to study a variety of samples with high spatial resolution and accuracy.
