Obiettivo The development of a CRM is proposed for the calibration of the detection efficiency of energy dispersive X-ray spectrometers (EDS) used in combination with scanning electron microscopy in hundreds of testing laboratories EU wide for easy standardless quantitative analysis of microscopic specimens. The criterion for the CRM composition is a characteristic X-ray spectrum very sensitive to spectrometer efficiency. The CRM shall be certificated by its composition and its X-ray spectrum recorded by means of an efficiency calibrated EDS spectrometer using synchrotron radiation. Measurement of the CRM spectrum and comparison with the specified spectrum enables a rapid spectrometer efficiency calibration in every other testing laboratory. The proposal comprises the development of a methodology that can be implemented in spectrometer software to enable the calibration with a minimum of operator assistance.
