En étudiant le spectre des photons X émis à l’aide d’un détecteur de type Si(Li), il pose les bases d’une méthode d’analyse multiélémentaire très sensible : la technique PIXE («Particle Induced X-ray Emission»); littéralement «émission X induite par particules chargées». [...] Aujourd’hui, cette technique d’analyse est devenue une méthode de base lorsqu’il s’agit de déterminer la présence d’une espèce chimique élémentaire (information en Z) indépendamment de toute influence de son environnement chimique. Elle fournit une information quantitative absolue en termes de masse par centimètre carré d’échantillon et permet l’analyse de traces en routine dans de nombreux domaines d’applications : sciences de la vie et environnement, caractérisation physico-chimique des matériaux, archéométrie... 2, record 1, French, - analyse%20PIXE
