- Abstract
A technique is described to image two phases (alumina and spinel) within a metal-matrix composite which takes advantage of charging effects that occur during examination in an SEM. Microscope and specimen parameters which affect the amount of contrast generated via charging are discussed, and imaging strategies are introduced to optimize the effect. 'Model' metal-matrix composite specimens were developed to verify the degree of charging in each phase.
