PGT manufactures both Si(Li) and HPGe detectors for X-ray analysis. Si(Li) detectors with the standard beryllium window have a useful energy range of 1-60 keV, while HPGe detectors are suitable up to 100 keV. Optional light-element capability extends the lower limit to below 200 eV. Both HPGe and Si(Li) detectors are fully temperature-cyclable and may be stored for long periods at room temperature with no degradation in resolution.
The X-ray source can range from nuclear accelerators to secondary X rays generated by fluorescence. X-ray detectors are used extensively for research, quality control, and failure analysis. These detectors are also interfaced with scanning electron microscopes for simultaneous qualitative and quantitative microanalysis of elements from boron through uranium by energy-dispersive spectroscopy.
