ISO 18516:2006 describes three methods for measuring the lateral resolution achievable in Auger electron spectrometers and X-ray photoelectron spectrometers under defined settings. The straight-edge method is suitable for instruments where the lateral resolution is expected to be larger than 1 micrometre.
