Silicon Drift Detectors to double your throughput
It's now possible to complete a 4 hour analysis in half the time. Other benefits include:
- Ability to collect EDS data 10 to 15 times faster
- Count rates 40,000/sec to 100,000/sec
- No liquid nitrogen maintenance
- Cost for LN2 is eliminated
- Does not require a 2 hour cool down period like the LN2 cooled SiLi detectors
- Light element ultra thin windows models available with energy resolution ~133 eV
- AFA throughput doubled

BE Detectors can see down to Sodium (Na)
LE Detectors can see below Sodium (Na) such as Oxides (O), Carbon (C), and Boron (B). Beryllium (Be) will not be seen.
