A CHARACTERISTIC FLUORESCENCE CORRECTION FACTOR FOR USE IN ELECTRON-PROBE MICROANALYSIS .2. EVALUATION OF EXPERIMENTAL RESULTS AND COMPARISONS

A comparison of a recently published secondary characteristic fluorescence correction method especially with the in electron probe microanalysis commonly used Reed procedure is presented along with evaluations of experimental data from literature taking into account the fluorescence correction using the new model. Special attention is directed to the choice of fundamental parameters, such as mass absorption coefficients, fluorescence yields, relative intensities and ionization cross sections, which are found to influence the corresponding results considerably.
