The macroscopic properties of technical materials are often determined by their elemental composition. Because most technical materials are inhomogeneous analytical methods are required that allow elemental analysis of these inhomogeneities - not only as a point by point measurement but also as a complete 2D-distribution. Micro X-ray fluorescence (µ XRF) has recently been established for this purpose. The availability of X-ray optics that capture a large solid angle of tube radiation and concentrate this to small sample areas down into the range of 25 µm makes position sensitive elemental analysis possible with µ XRF.
