Measurement of PuO2 film thickness by electron probe microanalysis (EPMA) calibration curve method

Plutonium (Pu) surfaces are highly reactive toward oxygen containing species and, therefore, invariably covered with oxides (e.g. PuO2) during transport and handling. The actual thickness of the surface oxide may dictate if a plutonium part is suitable for a certain application. As a result, a cost-...
