Special Options
Clicking the Special Options button opens the Time Dependent Intensity (TDI) Calibration and Quick Wavescan Samples dialog. There are two different methods that may be used in Probe for EPMA for the correction of Time Dependent Intensity (TDI) elements in unknown samples and another method for the acquisition of "quick" wavescan samples.
Time Dependent Intensity (TDI) element calibration corrections can only be applied to elements that are the first element acquired on a given spectrometer. The acquisition order of the elements may be modified in the Acquisition Options dialog. This option should be used for both elements "lost" during the acquisition (e.g. Na, K in glass) as well as elements "grown in" (e.g. Si and Al). Time Dependent Intensity (TDI) element fit types may be applied on an element by element basis in the Standard Assignments dialog from the Analyze! window.
"Quick" wavescan samples are spectrometer wavescans that automatically cover the entire range of each spectrometer available in the run.
