XFlash® SDD Detector
Bruker Nano - more that ten years experience in SDDs.
The XFlash® Detector has ushered in the beginning of a new era: X-ray detection close to room temperature with excellent energy resolution and extremely high pulse load capacity.
The core piece of this innovative system is a silicon chip which functions according to the drift chamber principle. Due to the special chip design with integrated charge amplifier the XFlash® can process extremely high count rates and at the same time displays a very good energy resolution, unrivalled by any other energy dispersive X-ray detector.
The XFlash® offers the following advantages over conventional thermoelectrically or liquid nitrogen cooled detectors
- Excellent energy resolution
- Extremely high pulse load capacity
- No elaborate, vibration-generating cooling systems
- Low operating cost
- Maintenance-free operation
- Small dimensions
- Low weight
Since their introduction in 1997, more than 3,000 XFlash® detectors have been shipped, which are used for a variety of spectroscopic applications.
