X-ray fluorescence technology provides one of the simplest, most accurate and most economic analytical methods for the determination of the chemical composition of many types of materials. It is non-destructive and reliable, requires no, or very little, sample preparation and is suitable for solid, liquid and powdered samples. It can be used for a wide range of elements, from beryllium (4) to uranium (92), and provides detection limits at the ppm level; it can also precisely measure concentrations of up to 100%.

Research & development using XRF

Nondestructive elemental or layer thickness/composition analysis is central to many research and development programs. Wavelength dispersive X-ray fluorescence (WD-XRF) is one of the most selective and sensitive methodology to accomplish these analyses. In addition to exceptional precision and wide elemental coverage, XRF is non-destructive—allowing the sample to be preserved for subsequent study. Some of the feature & benefits of Rigaku's technology for R&D applications include:

  • Inverted or standard optics depending on application
  • Small sample analysis
  • Mapping
  • No digestion or wet chemistry prep
  • Low detection limits
  • Excellent light element sensitivity
  • Analysis without standards (or few)
