Abstract
The x-ray microbeam scanning facility in our laboratory at Chalmers Un iversity of Technology/Goteborg University is described in terms of op tical and mechanical design, imaging capacity, spatial resolution, and sensitivity. Different types of visualization of the elemental distri bution are demonstrated and application of image processing is discuss ed. Examples of applications in the field of single-particle analysis as well as tree ring analysis are given. Future perspectives of the te chnique are also discussed.
