XR 4.0 X-ray energy detector (XRED)

Function and Applications

With the new X-ray energy detector you can directly determine the energies of single x-ray quanta.

Benefits

• In connection with the multichannel analyser (MCA) you can characterise the complete x-ray energy spectrum of the analysed material.
• Characteristic x-ray lines for all elements of the PSE included in the software.
• Directly mountable on the goniometer of the x-ray unit, without loss of functionality of the goniometer.
• Directly connectable to MCA (USB) without any additional interface on.
• Green Operation-LED.
• Parallel observation of the signals in the oscilloscope (optional).

Typical application laboratory experiments in universities and high schools:

• Characterisation of X-rays of different anode materials (Cu, Fe, Mo)
• Fluorescence analysis of pure materials and alloys
• Determination of the composition of alloys
• Compton effect-Mosley's law-Energy dispersive Bragg structure analysis
