BASIC INFORMATION

  • Make & Model : Rigaku Corporation, Japan (ZSX- Primus IV)
  • Department : Earth and Atmospheric Sciences
  • Location : LAB-II (TI- 010)
  • Category : Category - I
  • Status : Functional

PRINCIPLE:

Excitation: A high-energy X-ray beam is directed at the sample, causing the atoms within the sample to become excited. Fluorescence: This excitation leads to the emission of secondary (fluorescence) X-rays from the elements in the sample. The energy and intensity of these X-rays depend on the type and concentration of elements present. Detection: The emitted X-rays are detected by a semiconductor detector, and the energy is analyzed to determine the elements present and their concentrations.

APPLICATION:

Environmental Analysis: Determining trace metal contaminants in soil, water, and air. Monitoring pollutants in environmental samples. Geological and Mining: Elemental analysis of ores, minerals, and geological samples. Quality control in mining operations to determine the content of various metals. Material Science :Analysis of materials for elemental composition, especially in alloys and composite materials. Quantification of impurities or additives in materials. Consumer Goods and Industrial Products :Quality control for materials in manufacturing. Ensuring compliance with regulatory standards (e.g., RoHS for electronics). Food and Agriculture: Determining elemental content in food and agricultural products. Testing for heavy metals or contaminants. Forensic and Archaeological Studies: Elemental composition analysis of artifacts, historical materials, and forensic evidence. Pharmaceuticals: Quality control for elemental impurities in drugs and pharmaceutical products.
