  • Fundamentals of Monochromatic Excitation Energy-Dispersive X-ray Fluorescence Spectrometry


    1)Monochromatic Focused Excitation Technology
    Micro-focus X-ray tube emission is monochromated and diffracted to the sample point via full-focusing doubly curved crystal (Johansson type DCC), achieving point-to-point high-intensity monochromatic diffraction. This significantly reduces bremsstrahlung-induced scattered background interference and enhances elemental detection sensitivity.

    2)High-Performance SDD Detector
    Monochromatic excitation technology synergizes with SDD detectors, maximizing count rate and resolution to enable simultaneous detection of major and trace elements.


    Monochromatic X-ray Fluorescence Spectrometer  MERAK-SC
         


















    Energy-dispersive X-ray fluorescence spectrometry (EDXRF) lacks capability for light element analysis and typically cannot quantify ultra-light elements (C, N, O, F, Na, etc.). Beyond low fluorescence yields, a key limitation is continuous background interference from bremsstrahlung scattering, which obscures light element signals. This is where EDXRF underperforms compared to wavelength-dispersive XRF.

    MERAK-SC employs monochromatic focused excitation to dramatically improve light element sensitivity. Its ultra-thin graphene-window SDD detector enhances transmission for ultra-light elements (O, F, Na, etc.), matching the performance of large WD XRF systems.

    Secondary target technology enables analysis of major elements (K-Cu).

    Equipped with Holospec FP 2.0 fundamental parameters method, it rapidly develops analytical methods for diverse samples, enhancing adaptability and quantification accuracy.

  • Simultaneous S/Cl/F Analysis in Solid Waste
    S/Cl/F content is mandatory for waste treatment facilities. Current methods lack simplicity and simultaneity. MERAK-SC enhances light element sensitivity via monochromatic excitation, enabling synchronous F/S/Cl/major element analysis. Holospec FP 2.0 improves precision and adaptability, with simple prep and rapid detection for scientific waste management.

     



    Magnesite Elemental Analysis
    Magnesite (MgCO₃) is the primary natural resource for magnesium refractories. Global reserves total ~12 billion tons, ~5 billion in China. Impurities (CaO, SiO₂, Fe₂O₃, Al₂O₃) degrade refractory properties and complicate processing, making impurity analysis critical.






    Soil Nutrient Element Analysis
    Conventional methods require multiple techniques for dozens of elements, with complex prep and low efficiency. MERAK-SC simultaneously quantifies major/trace elements (Na, Mg, Al, Si, P, S, Cl, K, Ca, Mn, Fe, Zn) in soils, offering simple prep, rapid analysis, high accuracy, and low cost.
