Uses

Use EELS to determine what elements compose your sample, where those elements are located, how much is contained in the sample and, in many cases, the chemical state of that element. Also learn about a wealth of other physical properties and unique image contrast effects can be derived from the EELS signal.

EELS Atlas

The EELS Atlas from Gatan allows you to search for your EELS edges by energy, element name or number, or simply choose the element from the periodic table. Once you find the specific edge you are looking for, you can download example data in *.dm3 or *.msa format to help you in your experiments and analysis.
