How to

Getting Ready

Understand the basic requirements and setup necessary to acquire data with cathodoluminescence microscopy.

Spatial Mapping

See the recommended workflow for aligning the sample, CL system, and microscope, which enables high-quality data collection in the shortest time.

Spectroscopy

Follow step-by-step instructions to acquire cathodoluminescence spectral data to analyze your sample.

Emission Patterns

Understand angle-resolved (AR) and wavelength- and angle-resolved (WAR) CL best practices to acquire the highest quality emission patterns from materials and devices.

Spectrum Imaging

Explore how to collect combined spatial and spectroscopic data so you can utilize the power of CL spectral analysis with the spatial resolution of an electron microscope.

Analyze

Learn how to use Gatan Microscopy Suite^® (GMS) to process and analyze CL spectra and spectrum images.
