Hard X-Ray Spectrometers

 

Energy Range Covered: 4.5-25+ keV

easyXAFS300/300+

A spectrometer that gives fully research-quality, hard x-ray emission spectroscopy (XES) using a 100 Watt, conventional x-ray tube source.
The system is easily reconfigured for complementary transmission-mode XAFS capability.
The optic system is modular with full pre-alignment; it only takes a few minutes to change energy ranges.
In contrast to the liquid-cooled x-ray tubes of the higher powered system, the easyXES150 uses simpler air-cooled x-ray tubes which reduces complexity and makes this spectrometer a more economical, lower maintenance choice.

Data

3d-transition metals XAFS With the wide energy range of our hard x-ray spectrometers, high-quality XANES and EXAFS of all the 3d transition metals from Ti to Zn can be measured. These elements are crucial in critical areas of modern research from batteries to catalysis, environmental remediation, and more.	Co K-edge Rapid XANES Our hard x-ray spectrometers enable high quality data collection with energy resolution matching the synchrotron. Excellent performance is achieved in a matter of minutes. This enables the collection of large data sets in short time frames as well as real-time tracking of reaction processes.
NMC Ni K-edge High performance Ni K-edge XANES of pristine NMC 442 and NMC 811 battery electrodes. The change in the Ni K-edge position reflects the change in Ni oxidation state related to the different NMC compositions.
