Enhancing Micro XRF Analysis with Polycapillary Optics

8 Feb 2019

X-ray fluorescence (XRF) is a commonly used technique for elemental analysis. Compared to other technologies, XRF is non-destructive, easy to use, and requires minimal sample preparation. Micro-XRF applies the same principles as XRF but on a much smaller (micro) scale.

Spectroscopy LampsMonochromators, filters and spectroscopy lamps are available for specific applications of spectroscopy instruments. Available spectroscopy lamps include xenon, hollow cathode, ultraviolet, tungsten, halogen, mercury and deuterium.X-Ray Diffraction and SpectroscopyX-Ray diffraction & spectroscopy are used in material characterization to discern the structure and elemental composition of a sample. X-Ray diffractometers (XRD) are superior instruments in elucidating the dimensional atomic structure of crystalline materials, including powders, thin films and single crystals. For large unit cells or ordered macromolecules, consider small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS). X-ray spectroscopic techniques include X-ray fluorescence (XRF) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), both providing simple and accurate methods for determining the elemental composition of a material. Energy dispersive (EDXRF) and wavelength dispersive (WDXRF) XRF spectrometers are available, as well as handheld/portable devices. High-resolution, 3D microstructure characterization of materials can be achieved with X-ray microscopes combining sub-micron resolution imaging with 3D computed tomography.
