Detectors

IXRF Systems offers a wide variety of x-ray detectors. From liquid nitrogen cooled, to the new SDD (Silicon Drift Detector) which require no liquid nitrogen for cooling and can accept large amounts of x-rays to create very fast x-ray maps.

IXRF electronics are optimized to provide true “data streaming” for the fastest x-ray processing possible. Digital Imaging, X-ray Elemental Mapping, and X-ray Spectra, are all computer controlled though the IXRF software and hardware.

DETECTOR TYPES

Silicon Drift (SDD)

IXRF utilizes only the highest quality diodes in every SDD detector.  SDD detectors replace LN2  predecessors, handle higher throughput (count rates) for rapid elemental map acquisition, and increase spectral resolution.

Resolution: 123eV - 133eV            

Active Area: 10mm2 - 60mm2

SiLi (LN2)

SiLi detectors have been a staple in microanalysis for over 30 years. IXRF will build, repair, and even upgrade EDX software for customers that use SiLi (LN2) detectors.  

Resolution: 127eV - 133eV

Active Area: 10mm2 - 30mm2
