(EDX) Plating film thickness measurement (multiple layers)
I would like to perform a quantitative analysis of a plating. Can the film thickness be measured if the same element is spread across multiple layers?
Answer
• There is no way to specify what layer generated the fluorescent X-rays, and so analysis is not possible if all of the layers are unknown.
• If there is 1 unknown layer, and the remaining layers are known (both film thickness and composition), then analysis may be possible if you enter fixed values for the known layers.
• If there is 1 unknown layer, and the remaining layers are known (both film thickness and composition), then analysis may be possible if you enter fixed values for the known layers.
May I have your opinion?
