Abstract
A new method of electronprobe microanalysis (EPMA) is suggested. It is based on creating ionic conductivity in frozen water solutions and in polymer films by doping them with a salt. This procedure is effective to prevent surface charging and allows imaging of nonconducting samples by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) as well as X-ray microanalysis. Specifically, this procedure makes it possible to perform EPMA of samples with xerogel matrices, which were used for molecular laser microprobe mass spectrometry analysis, and consequently to provide complex microprobe examination of samples.
