DetailMXPS System
Flexible and Upgradable Monochromated X-Ray Photoemission Spectroscopy System
MXPS (Monochromated X-Ray Photoemission Spectroscopy System) is designed to perform XPS analysis with a monochromatic X-Ray source, typically a FOCUS 500/600 with Rowland circle diameter of 500 mm or 600 mm. The advantages of the XPS analysis of this system in comparison with a non-monochromatic XPS System are the following:
- Higher resolution
- Higher sensitivity
- Lower background
- No satellites
- Reduced sample damage
- Focused X-ray spot
The MXPS provides the scientist with an optimized solution. The system allows to start with a basic configuration for MXPS and expand with upgrade options towards improved performance or expand to additional analysis methods. This means the system can grow depending on additional requirements and needs.
The system basis consists of the following items:
- Analysis chamber (stainless steel or µ-metal)
- PHOIBOS Analyzer (100 or 150) with 1D or 2D detector
- Manipulator with up to 5 axis of movement option and heating and cooling option
- Monochromated X-ray source (FOCUS 500 or FOCUS 600)
- Water Cooling System for source and pumping system
- Load lock chamber for sample introduction with sample storage and sample heating options
- Extension possibility for possible preparation or reaction chamber
- Pumping system
- Bake-out system
- Electronic
- SPECS software for data acquisition, data analysis, remote control and automation possibility
