Used OXFORD INCA EDXS #9185992 for sale

OXFORD INCA EDXS is a high-resolution electron-initiated x-ray spectrometer designed for high-precision analysis of trace element composition in small areas. It is equipped with an array of four electron gun/detector pairs, each mounted at a different angle of incidence, that allow mapping of surface compositions over a wide range of angles. The EDXS features a powerful 30kV cold-cathode electron gun, with a spot size of 10 to 5 mm, that generates x-rays over the energy range of 10 to 5000 eV. INCA EDXS utilizes a wavelength dispersive x-ray spectrometer (WDXS) to detect the x-rays emitted from the sample. Each WDXS is equipped with a focusing mirror that directs the energy varying radiation towards an array of detectors. The detector is configured to measure x-rays over a range of energies. The EDXS equipment is built on a large, lab-grade aluminum pedestal enabling it to be used on any surface for sample-in-vacuum analysis. It has an open-source data acquisition system to enable it to communicate with the host computer for data collection, analysis, and storage. Using OXFORD EDXS, researchers can obtain energy-dispersive x-ray spectra from samples that are on the order of few nanometers thick. This allows researchers to quickly identify and quantify the elemental composition of small samples that are otherwise difficult to characterize. This unit offers improved mapping resolution compared to other spectrometers, and is capable of measuring small areas (down to 0.25mm) in a short amount of time. OXFORD INCA EDXS is suitable for a variety of applications, such as elemental mapping in semiconductor devices, nanostructured materials, biological samples, and other fields. Its high-resolution spectral resolution and powerful data acquisition machine enable quick and accurate elemental analysis of small areas. In addition, the ease-of-use and intuitive software make it a great choice for any lab environment.
