SILICON DRIFT DETECTORS (SDD) FOR BEAM-LINES
RaySpec offers a unique range of SDD products for beamline applications at synchrotrons and particle accelerators, designed for all fluorescence spectroscopy applications.
All beam-lines are different, especially in today’s environment of multi-technique end stations. Space is more and more limited and the requirements of the detectors are increasingly specialised.
For these reasons, most of the Silicon Drift Detectors that RaySpec builds for beamline/research applications are specially adapted at various levels. Sensor geometries relative to the target are most important and RaySpec offers complete customisation in this respect from single to multiple sensors in planar or focused arrays with specially designed relative sensor positions. All other mechanical features are designed in close cooperation with our customers to produce a unique solution for each experimental station and application.
RaySpec Silicon Drift Detectors can be customised by
- Number of sensors
- Sensor size
- Window material and thickness
- Energy Resolution
- High Rate optimisation
- Focused or planar sensor arrays
- Collimation
- UHV compatibility
- Geometry: Fixed / manual slide / adapted for translation tables
- Detector materials (low fluorescence)
Typical beamline applications include:
- X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF)
- Micro- and nano- X-Ray Fluorescence (µXRF and nXRF)
- Total Reflection X-Ray Fluorescence (TXRF)
- X-Ray Absorption Spectroscopy (XAS)
- Particle Induced X-Ray Emission (PIXE)
