11. The specimen must have a flat, highly polished surface placed at known angle (15° in this work) to the incident beam and the X-ray spectrometer. In our case, however, the concave profile of voids and pores causes to topologically scatter the generated X-rays, so the intensity of X-rays monitored in Figure 3 normally decreases on the locations of pore and void. Given this geometric effect, further higher counts of the Al peaks should be monitored from the void edges.
