Glossary X-ray spectroscopy

technique to identify elements by analyzing emitted X-rays

X-ray spectroscopy is a technique used to determine the elemental composition of a material by measuring the characteristic X-rays emitted from the material when it is excited by a high-energy source. This method is widely used in fields such as chemistry, physics, and materials science to analyze the structure and properties of substances at the atomic level.
