class hyperspy.models.edsmodel.EDSModel(spectrum, auto_background=True, auto_add_lines=True, *args, **kwargs)

Bases: hyperspy.models.model1d.Model1D

Build and fit a model of an EDS Signal1D.

Parameters
  • spectrum (an EDSSpectrum (or any EDSSpectrum subclass) instance.) –

  • auto_add_lines (boolean) – If True, automatically add Gaussians for all X-rays generated in the energy range by an element, using the edsmodel.add_family_lines method.

  • auto_background (boolean) – If True, adds automatically a polynomial order 6 to the model, using the edsmodel.add_polynomial_background method.

  • extra arguments are passed to the Model creator. (Any) –

Example

>>> m = s.create_model()
>>> m.fit()
>>> m.fit_background()
>>> m.calibrate_energy_axis('resolution')
>>> m.calibrate_xray_lines('energy', ['Au_Ma'])
>>> m.calibrate_xray_lines('sub_weight',['Mn_La'], bound=10)
add_family_lines(xray_lines='from_elements')

Create the Xray-lines instances and configure them appropiately

If a X-ray line is given, all the the lines of the familiy is added. For instance if Zn Ka is given, Zn Kb is added too. The main lines (alpha) is added to self.xray_lines

Parameters

xray_lines ({None, 'from_elements', list of string}) – If None, if metadata contains xray_lines list of lines use those. If ‘from_elements’, add all lines from the elements contains in metadata. Alternatively, provide an iterable containing a list of valid X-ray lines symbols. (eg. (‘Al_Ka’,’Zn_Ka’)).

the background is added to self.background_components

Parameters

calibrate_energy_axis(calibrate='resolution', xray_lines='all_alpha', **kwargs)

Calibrate the resolution, the scale or the offset of the energy axis by fitting.

Parameters
  • calibrate ('resolution' or 'scale' or 'offset') – If ‘resolution’, fits the width of Gaussians place at all x-ray lines. The width is given by a model of the detector resolution, obtained by extrapolating the energy_resolution_MnKa in metadata metadata. This method will update the value of energy_resolution_MnKa. If ‘scale’, calibrate the scale of the energy axis If ‘offset’, calibrate the offset of the energy axis

  • xray_lines (list of str or 'all_alpha') – The Xray lines. If ‘all_alpha’, fit all using all alpha lines

  • **kwargs (extra key word arguments) – All extra key word arguments are passed to fit or multifit, depending on the value of kind.

calibrate_xray_lines(calibrate='energy', xray_lines='all', bound=1, kind='single', **kwargs)

Calibrate individually the X-ray line parameters.

The X-ray line energy, the weight of the sub-lines and the X-ray line width can be calibrated.

Parameters
  • calibrate ('energy' or 'sub_weight' or 'width') – If ‘energy’, calibrate the X-ray line energy. If ‘sub_weight’, calibrate the ratio between the main line alpha and the other sub-lines of the family If ‘width’, calibrate the X-ray line width.

  • xray_lines (list of str or 'all') – The Xray lines. If ‘all’, fit all lines

  • bounds (float) – for ‘energy’ and ‘width’ the bound in energy, in eV for ‘sub_weight’ Bound the height of the peak to fraction of its height

  • kind ({'single', 'multi'}) – If ‘single’ fit only the current location. If ‘multi’ use multifit.

  • **kwargs (extra key word arguments) – All extra key word arguments are passed to fit or multifit, depending on the value of kind.

fit_background(start_energy=None, end_energy=None, windows_sigma=(4.0, 3.0), kind='single', **kwargs)
