What causes an emission when the SEM's primary electron beam bombards a specimen?

When the SEM's primary electron beam hits the specimen, it causes excitation of atoms in the specimen. This excitation leads to the emission of secondary electrons, backscattered electrons, characteristic X-rays, and Auger electrons, which are then detected by various detectors in the SEM for imaging and analysis.
