Abstract
Scanning proton microprobe data are usually presented as plots of elem ental intensity maps. However, these maps do not present actual concen tration distributions, due to variations in energy loss and X-ray abso rption, caused by local changes of the sample areal density and topolo gy. Scanning transmission ion microscopy (STIM) is the method that can provide additional information of importance for evaluation of these effects. The use of particle shape and areal density distribution, det ermined by STIM, in the case of single particle analysis is presented in this paper.
