Element Silicon Drift Detector

 

Element Silicon Drift Detectors

 

The Element SDDs are designed with a silicon nitride (Si3N4) window to optimize low energy X-ray transmission for light element analysis. The detectors offer excellent resolution and their advanced low-noise electronics provide outstanding throughput performance. The small footprint of the Element SDDs offers flexibility to ensure ideal geometry and data collection conditions. The detectors contain a 30 mm2 chip and are available in 2 different models:

  • Fixed
  • Manual Slide

Benefits

 

Outstanding Light Element Results and Best Low Energy Performance
Reliability

 

The design of the SDDs with the materials properties and durability of the Si3N4 window offer the most robust and reliable detectors for EDS applications. The unique module design means that they are:

  • Corrosion and shock resistant
  • Suitable for plasma cleaning
