Abstract
Qunatitative energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy performed in a transmission electron microscope was used for characterisation of sol-gel derived lead zirconate-titanate bulk ceramics. Chemical composition fluctuations in submicron regions were examined. The influence of foil thickness measurement accuracy on results obtained using absorption corrections was estimated. The optimisation of the analytical parameters and procedures, and the correlation between the chemical composition, structure and processing parameters are described and discussed.
