Chapter 21, Problem 21.11QAP

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The name of the three possible sources of signal with SEM and the differences between the elastic and inelastic scattering of electron are to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The elastic scattering is the process of scattering in which the kinetic energy of the particle remains conserve during scattering of electron. In contrast to elastic collision, the inelastic collision is the process of scattering in which the kinetic energy is not remains constant during the scattering of electron.
