R-XAS X-ray absorption spectrometer

The R-XAS X-ray absorption spectrometer is a versatile in-house instrument capable of performing XAS, XANES, and EXAFS measurements. This laboratory system enables these measurements to be made in-house without the need to travel to a synchrotron site. The system uses a specially developed 3.0 kW X-ray generator with easily replaceable filaments and target materials to optimize X-ray flux for a wide range of elements. A range of incident crystal types allows tuning of the incident X-ray beam energy such that elements form Ca to U can be measured. Both transmission and fluorescence measurements are possible. A complete data analysis package allowing background subtractions, least squares fitting of the data, Fourier transform analysis and Fourier filtering for single shell refinements, is included with the system.
