Abstract

In scanning electron microscopy (SEM) or electron probe microanalysis (EPMA), the Monte Carlo method is widely used for modeling electron and X-ray transport within specimens. For an accurate simulation, the calculation of secondary fluorescence is necessary, especially for specimens with complex structures.
