\ Use the form below to request a new term ** ** Scroll down to see a term request example **\ Please indicate the label for the proposed term:energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy Please provide a textual definition (with source): "Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS or EDX) is an analytical technique used for the elemental analysis or chemical characterization of a sample. It relies on the investigation of an interaction of some source of X-ray excitation and a sample. Its characterization capabilities are due in large part to the fundamental principle that each element has a unique atomic structure allowing unique set of peaks on its X-ray spectrum." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy-dispersive_X-ray_spectroscopy Please add an example of usage for proposed term: Qualitative elemental analysis of nanomaterials Please provide any additional optional information below. (e.g. desired asserted SuperClass in ERO hierarchy or Reference Branch) [ ] Instrument [ ] Biological process [ ] Disease [ ] Human studies [ ] Instrument [ ] Organism [ ] Reagent [ ] Software [x] Technique [ ] Organization Additional info: Synonyms: energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometry; EDS; EDX * Term request example **\ Please indicate the label for the proposed term: four-terminal resistance sensor Please provide a textual definition (with source): "Four-terminal resistance sensors are electrical impedance measuring instruments that use separate pairs of current-carrying and voltage-sensing electrodes to make accurate measurements that can be used to compute a material's electrical resistance." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four-terminal_sensing Please add an example of usage for proposed term: Measuring the inherent (per square) resistance of doped silicon.
