Thermo Scientific has introduced the Ultra Dry Compact EDS X-ray Detector. Small enough to fit in the palm of the hand, this detector features a maintenance-free design that eliminates the need for liquid nitrogen.
It offers handling collection rates up to 1,000,000 X-rays per second with detection sensitivity to boron (B) and EDS energy resolutions of 129 eV Mn. The stream-lined, fit-for-purpose design makes this small detector suited for table-top SEMs, as well as a great fit on new SEMs or as a cost-effective replacement EDS for existing SEMs.
