Sensibilité accrue et plage de détection élargie grâce à de nouveaux systèmes de détection

De nouveaux systèmes de détection avancés permettent au XGT-9000 Pro d'atteindre un niveau de sensibilité inédit et au XGT-9000 Expert d'afficher une sensibilité ultra-haute performance et la gamme d'éléments détectables la plus large. L'amélioration de la sensibilité réduit le temps de mesure et renforce l'efficacité, tandis que l'enrichissement de la gamme d'éléments détectables élargit les possibilités d'application.

Imagerie macro et micro de haute qualité avec sélection de sondes multiples

La série XGT-9000 offre des performances et une flexibilité optimales grâce à son système d'excitation bien conçu, comprenant un générateur de rayons X à haut rendement (jusqu'à 50 kV et 1 000 µA) et un large choix de tailles de point de sonde jusqu'à 10 microns et 1,2 mm. Il est possible d'installer plusieurs sondes dans l'instrument et de sélectionner dans le logiciel celles que vous souhaitez utiliser. Ces instruments permettent une imagerie macro et micro rapide et de haute qualité qui ne compromet en rien les besoins de résolution spatiale et de temps de mesure sur une zone cartographique étendue. Deux sondes ultra haute intensité de 15 µm et 100 µm sont disponibles.

Deux types de détecteurs pour les rayons X fluorescents et les rayons X émis

La série XGT-9000 propose deux types de détecteurs : un détecteur de rayons X fluorescents qui indique la distribution élémentaire d'un échantillon et un détecteur de rayons X émis qui indique la structure interne d'un échantillon. Le XGT-9000 peut obtenir simultanément les deux types d'images de la même zone, ce qui est particulièrement utile pour mieux comprendre l'électronique, les pierres précieuses (y compris les inclusions) et les échantillons biologiques.

Images optiques haute résolution et brillantes

L'obtention d'images claires est essentielle pour l'analyse micro-XRF. La série XGT-9000 propose des caméras haute résolution pour saisir l'image de l'échantillon complet et de ses détails jusqu'au niveau microscopique. Il est possible d'agrandir ou de réduire numériquement les deux images pour identifier librement la meilleure position à analyser sur la surface de l'échantillon. En outre, grâce aux nombreux systèmes d'éclairage, vous pouvez obtenir des images optiques brillantes de votre échantillon cible.
