PANalytical Epsilon 4 ED-XRF
Energy-dispersive X-ray fluorescence (ED-XRF) spectrometer for elemental analysis from 0.1 to 100wt%
Description
Epsilon is an energy-dispersive X-ray fluorescence (ED-XRF) spectrometer for elemental analysis from 0.1 to 100wt%.听 This instrument uses an X-ray source to eject core-shell electrons from an atom to create an excited state. The resulting cascade of electrons to fill the holes results in emission of X-radiation from the atom (fluorescence) that has a characteristic wavelength/energy specific to each element.听
