Zusammenfassung

Neuere Entwicklungen, gegenwärtiger Stand und erwartete zukünftige Entwicklungen innerhalb der energiedispersiven Röntgenspektrometrie werden vorgestellt. Herausgestellt werden vor allem die Verbesserungen hinsichtlich der Selektivität, der Empfindlichkeit, der Nachweisgrenzen, der Quantifizierung und des Anwendungsbereiches. Die Fortschritte sind das Ergebnis neuer oder besserer Anregungsquellen und Detektoren, der Konstruktion und Automation, der Computer-Software und der Entwicklungen innerhalb der Theorie.

Summary

Recent development, present state and expected future developments in energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometry are discussed. Attention is paid to the improvements in analytical selectivity, sensitivity, detection limit, quantitative character and applicability range, which are the result of new or better excitation sources, detectors, instrument design, automation, computer software and theoretical developments.
