(EDX) Analysis of "Si" and "P" in "Cu" alloy

In a Cu alloy, I would like to measure the light elements such as Si(silicone) and P(phosphorus) as sensitively as possible. What settings are the best for this?

Answer

(1) Set the atmosphere to vacuumfor this analysis.
  →This will improve the sensitivity for light elements.
(2) Lower the tube voltagefor the analysis.
  → Fluorescent X-ray generated from Cu will be suppressed, and the light element intensity will be heightened.

May I have your opinion?
