What is XRF?

Energy Dispersive X-Ray

Fluorescence Spectrometry (ED-XRF)

Generation of X-rays A source X-ray strikes an inner shell electron. If the

x-ray is at high enough energy (above absorption

edge of element), the inner shell electron is ejected

from the atom.

Higher energy electrons cascade to fill vacancy,

giving off characteristic fluorescent X-rays. A

detection system collects the fluoresced x-rays and

the analyzers software determines content.

For elemental analysis of F (9) to Fm (100)

Benefits of XRF

Some Reasons that ED-XRF Is So Popular:

Relatively Low Cost of Acquisition

Non-Destructive or Minimal Sample Preparation

Speed of Measurement; from 10 to 300 seconds

Operation is Simple to Learn

Versatile Testing Equipment

Applications

Popular Application Fields Solved by XRF:

Elemental Material Analysis

Laboratory Use: Industrial and Academic

Coating Thickness Measurements

Petrochemical Analysis (Sulfur ID)

Hazardous Substance Detection (RoHS,CPSIA)

Gold and Precious Metal Identification

Environmental Analysis and Mining Applications

The staff of Eastern Applied Research has a strong working knowledge of a variety of XRF applications and has the ability to

adapt that knowledge for new applications that users of XRF Technology may be looking to solve.
