Use Conductive Coating Correction for Beam Energy Loss

Calculates the incident beam energy loss due to the conductive coating. Only affects low over-voltage x-rays. The parameters may be set independently for the standards (Standard menu) and the unknowns (Elements/Cations dialog).  Only necessary if the standards and unknowns have different thickness or different elemental coatings.

 

Note that the coating parameters for standards and unknowns are ignored in the quantitative calculations until the electron absorption and x-ray transmission coating correction flags are explicitly turned on from the Analytical | Analysis Options menu dialog.
