XFlash® 7200 FIRE is our breakthrough Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (EDS) detector engineered for ultra-fast, high-resolution elemental analysis even under challenging conditions.
The largest-in-class active SDD area is powered by four independent silicon drift detector (SDD) segments, each with dedicated pulse processing. This unique architecture enables the XFlash® 7200 FIRE to deliver an industry-leading output count rate (OCR) of up to 2,400,000 cps with exceptional light element sensitivity and excellent peak separation across the entire EDS range.
The trailblazing largest-in-class XFlash® 7200 FIRE changes what is possible in SEM EDS.
The XFlash 7200 FIRE is the first large-area detector of its kind, with a 4-channel SDD design for ultra-high-resolution quantitative and qualitative elemental analysis at unprecedentedly short count rates.
The exceptional performance of the XFlash® 7200 FIRE is driven by its unique design.
The detector features four detector segments with a total active area of 200 mm², and 4x parallel signal processing to deliver energy resolution at industry-leading OCRs of up to 2,400,000 cps, overcoming the limitations of conventional detectors.
The XFlash® 7200 FIRE's architecture and inclined geometry enable signal collection with the largest solid angles possible, maximizing collection efficiency and supporting parallel ultra-fast EBSD and micro-XRF on SEM for comprehensive material analysis.
The outstanding count-rate and efficiency performance of the detector support ultra-fast analysis at both high and low acceleration voltages with minimized sample drift for elemental mapping at ultra-high spatial resolutions.
With a windowless design XFlash® 7200 FIRE has outstanding low-energy X-ray sensitivity for light element detection, and its optimized electron trap supports analysis across the full EDS spectrum up to 30 kV.
With its segmented 4-channel design, excellent energy resolution at high count rates, and the windowless design, the detector XFlash® 7200 FIRE excels in demanding SEM EDS applications. In particular:
Semiconductor and Advanced Materials
The combination of high throughput, excellent spectral resolution, and full-spectrum elemental detection supports demanding analytical tasks such as nanometer resolution elemental mapping and distinguishing elements frequently used in semiconductors exhibiting demanding peak overlaps.
