Cathodoluminescence成像也是一个理想的工具to studygeologicalsamples. The CL emission from a rock gives insights into crystal growth,zonation, cementation, replacement, deformation, provenance, trace elements, and defect structures. This can be used to fingerprint rocks and reveal interesting spatial textures on a submicron scale. TheSPARCis a seamlessly integrated CL system, compatible with full-sized SEMs, offering multiple imaging modes on a modular platform.
Cathodoluminescence Webinars
Applications of Cathodoluminescence Detection in Geological Research
Overview of Delmic CL solutions and a talk by the leading expert of the field, Professor Cameron Davidson from Carleton College.
SPARC: Cathodoluminescence Imaging for Nanophotonics – Webinar
(40 min) A brief introduction on cathodoluminescence detection and various light emission mechanisms of materials.
SPARC: Cathodoluminescence Imaging for Geology – Webinar
(36 min) In this webinar, we discuss the physical background of CL emission in rocks, sample preparation, and the typical CL workflow. We show examples of how the technique can be applied to sedimentary rocks, gemstones, and zircons.
