Surface analysis system.


The XR5 Monochromator A monochromator is an optical device that transmits a mechanically selectable narrow band of wavelengths of light or other radiation chosen from a wider range of wavelengths available at the input.  is now available as a standalone component for surface analysis using x-ray photoelectron pho·to·e·lec·tron

). The XR5 Monochromator is said to be the only microfocused monochromated x-ray source available for the component market. The XR5 Monochromator is said to satisfy the current need in surface analysis to measure smaller features on samples. This requires an x-ray source with smaller spot sizes. The instrument can be used for almost all surface analysis samples and provides high resolution XPS analyses at a range of spot sizes, according to according to

 the company. With the XR5 Monochromator, it is possible to perform source-defined small area XPS analysis down to 120 lam. As a small spot x-ray monochromator, the XR5 is said to provide better energy resolution than those operating only in the large spot mode. Maximum sensitivity for small area analysis, shorter analysis time and improved angle resolved XPS are also said to be achieved.
