Used APPLIED BIOSYSTEMS Pulsar I #87628 for sale

APPLIED BIOSYSTEMS Pulsar I is an X-ray photoelectron spectrometer (XPS) designed for surface analysis of materials and thin films. The equipment operates by scanning an X-ray beam over the sample surface and measuring the resulting photoelectrons emitted from the surface, providing valuable information on the surface composition,and chemical and physical structure. Pulsar I's structural versatility and advanced data acquisition enables it to acquire data in a range of experimental formats and environments, from ultra-high vacuum to elevated pressures and temperatures. APPLIED BIOSYSTEMS Pulsar I combines a powerful and versatile μm-level scanning system with a powerful surface-sensitive X-ray source. The X-ray source is capable of producing energized X-rays of a wide range of elements, from hydrogen through uranium, allowing for maximum flexibility when analyzing a variety of different material compositions. Pulsar I's scanning unit enables up to 1μm resolution lateral scanning, while using a small spot size (1.25 μm) to acquire depth information. This scanning allows for measurement of a sample's surfaces and deeper layers, with a lateral and depth resolution of 1μm. APPLIED BIOSYSTEMS Pulsar I also features high resolution data acquisition. Its impressive energy resolution enables it to differentiate between miniscule differences in the X-ray photon energy of different elements. In addition, the machine uses a large-area X-ray detector, allowing it to measure larger samples while maintaining low electron counts, which improves the signal-to-noise ratio. The combination of excellent energy resolution and a high count rate enable faster data acquisition and more accurate measurement of thin films or other thin-layer sample structures. Finally, the tool also comes with a wide variety of data analysis options including peak fitting and deconvolution, as well as the ability to export results for further analysis with other software. This provides researchers with powerful tools to quickly analyze and interpret XPS data, as well as visualize the results. All in all, Pulsar I is an advanced spectrometer optimized for surface analysis. Its versatile design allows it to measure a range of samples in different environments, and its high resolution data acquisition capabilities enable it to acquire precise, accurate data from the sample. It is the ideal instrument for analyzing surfaces and thin films, and its wide selection of data analysis options make it easy to extract valuable information.
