摘要
In the parallel detection system for EELS, the energy resolution of spectra depends on the characteristics of the fluorescent screen which converts the electron spectrum into the photon signal. We tested the various kinds of screens made by fluorescent powders or a YAG single crystal, and measured their luminous region as a function of the screen thickness with the 500 kV electron beam. When the screen is thicker than 70–80 μm, the FWHM is proportional to the thickness. However, there is a certain saturation value (∼55 μm) of luminous width for the thin screens, and this value is larger than the electron beam size. © Oxford University Press.
