Fast X-Ray Diffraction Measurements

, den 05. Oktober 2005

The Bruker AXS LynxEye detector enables X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) measurements with higher speed and higher resolution than possible with traditional so-called point detectors. It’ s a cost-effective, one-dimensional (1D) detector for measuring a wide angular range simultaneously, thereby significantly reducing measurement times compared to point detectors, while achieving high resolution and excellent peak shape. The LynxEye detector uses affordable, yet high-performance novel-compound silicon strip technology, and features a large 14.4 mm by 16 mm active area. Since there is no need for counting gas, cooling water, or liquid nitrogen, the LynxEye is a virtually maintenance-free, compact and robust detector for everyday use.
