Best-in-Class Detector Size, Speed of Analysis and Resolution

  • Advanced field-effect transistor (FET) integration and a proprietary preamplifier stage create the extraordinary operating space that enables the superior performance of the UltraDry detector
  • With a smaller and integrated FET, the device capacitance that leads to electronic noise is virtually eliminated
  • By optimizing and characterizing the detector electronics, pulse pile-up and sum peaks are effectively handled;dead time is minimized and resolution is maximized on the fly across a wide range of operating conditions
  • The UltraDry EDS detector results in an extremely high data collection rate with no external or liquid nitrogen cooling and virtually no sacrifice in energy resolution
  • The unique-to-Thermo slotted collimator design allows for consistent collection rates across the widest possible range of working distances, which is absolutely critical to dual EDS and EBSD acquisition
  • The offered range of crystal active areas (10mm2, 30mm2, 60mm2, 100mm2) and the smallest in class packaging envelope provides the greatest solid angle of collection available for a detector on the market today
  • FWHM measured (ISO 15632) at 5.89keV (Mn-Ka) with 10,000 counts per second stored in the spectra, measured on the electron microscope
  • WD range is measured by varying the vertical distance between the pole piece and the surface of the sample and measuring the input count. STD distance of 50mm. TOA of 35°. The range is defined as within 25% of the peak count rate at the optimized working distance.
  • Vertically slotted collimator to enable maximum WD range. Absolute requirement for dual EDS/EBSD acquisition mode.
  • Light element sensitivity down to beryllium
  • No auxiliary cooling connections, water or fans. No liquid nitrogen.
  • Operating environment to 35 °C
  • ±5 eV resolution change (±3eV typical between 1% and 60%dead time) from minimum to maximum count rate at a givenanalyzer time constant
  • ±5eV peak shift (±3eV typical between 1% and 60% deadtime) from minimum to maximum count rate at a given analyzertime constant
  • Input count rates >1,000,000 counts per second
  • Motorized slide optionally available
