Comprehensive Quantitation Functions Functional Design

Calibration Curve Method Large Sample Chamber with Small Footprint

A standard sample is measured and the relationship with the fluorescent X-ray intensity Installed width is 20% smaller than the previous instrument (EDX-720) due to its compact body size.
plotted as a calibration curve, which is used for the quantitation of unknown samples. The EDX-8100 can accommodate samples up to a maximum size of W300 x D275 x approx. H100 mm.
Although this method requires selection of a standard sample close to the unknown sample
and creation of a calibration curve for each element, it achieves a high level of analysis
accuracy.
This method supports all types of corrections for coexistent elements, EDX-720 275mm 300mm
including absorption/excitation correction and correction for
overlapping elements.

Film FP Method
The instrument also offers the thin-film FP method function. The film
FP method permits the film thickness measurement of multilayer films, 460mm
simultaneous film thickness measurements, and quantitative film
composition.
When using the film FP method, the substrate material, deposition
sequence, and element information can be set.

Background FP Method
Fluorescent X-ray Compton-scattered High-Visibility LED Lamp

When X-rays are generated, an X-ray indicator at the rear of the instrument and an X-RAYS ON lamp at the front turn on, so

Matching Function
The matching function compares analysis data for a sample with an
existing data library and displays the results in descending degree of
confidence.
The library contains content data and intensity data and the user can
register each type. The content data values can be entered manually.
