Other types of detectors in SEM include Backscattered Electron Detectors (BSED) and X-ray Detectors. BSEDs are more sensitive to atomic number contrast and are useful for compositional analysis, while X-ray detectors are used for energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), providing elemental composition information. SEDs, on the other hand, are specifically optimized for topographical imaging, offering greater surface detail.
