core-loss spectrum

core-loss spectrum

The high energy region (more than about 50 eV) of an EELS spectrum is called "core-loss spectrum." This spectrum, which is produced by exciting inner-shell electrons to the conduction band, enables us to perform qualitative and quantitative analysis of constituent elements, and to obtain the density of states of the conduction band of a material. The spectrum shows a structure specific to the material.
