Abstract
The advent of synchrotron radiation and the recent development of X-ra y optics have rendered possible the realization of X-ray fluorescence microprobes. Various arrangements allow to obtain micrometer size hard X-ray beams with enough flux to undertake elemental mapping of trace elements. Associated with microdiffraction or with extended X-ray abso rption fine structure studies, these microprobes will become a very in teresting tool for material characterization.
