Advantages and Characteristics of Olympus XRD Analyzer

Convenient sample preparation: Traditional desktop XRD instruments generally require testing personnel to perform a large amount of sample collection and preparation work, as large quantities of samples must be ground into powder and carefully rolled into small spherical shapes. If the sample is ground too finely or the compaction force is too strong, it may cause sample preparation effects, such as preferential orientation issues. However, Olympus' XRD analyzer is different in that it only requires 15 milligrams of sample to obtain high-quality detection results, and the testing personnel can easily prepare samples using the sample kit provided with the instrument.

Simultaneous measurement: Traditional desktop XRD instruments require several seconds to obtain each 2-theta measurement value, so obtaining all 2-theta measurements may take up to several hours. The Olympus XRD analyzer is equipped with a charge coupled device (CCD) detector, which can simultaneously obtain all 2-theta measurement values, making it possible to display the complete diffraction pattern almost immediately on the screen.

2D X-ray diffractometer: Many XRD tools use X-ray detectors that can only capture photons that fall off the sample in one plane, completing one-dimensional experiments. Olympus' XRD analyzer equipped with a charge coupled device (CCD) detector can collect slices of diffraction rings to help users understand whether the sample has been prepared correctly (particle statistics and/or preferred orientation of grains). Based on this information, users can confirm the accuracy and representativeness of the quantitative data obtained.

Perspective geometry: Unlike large traditional XRD instruments that use reflection geometry techniques, Olympus' XRD analyzer uses transmission geometry techniques at the location where the X-ray beam passes through the sample. The sample volume in the sample pool remains fixed, so changes in sample density will not affect resolution. This feature is particularly important for low-density materials, such as drug samples. Compared to instruments based on reflective geometry technology, our instrument can achieve higher resolution with fixed penetration performance.

Energy differentiated X-ray detector: Larger traditional desktop XRD instruments generally cannot use detectors that are more sensitive to energy, so the detector will be affected by photons that are not used in XRD experiments. In contrast, Olympus' XRD analyzer can remove photons that are not directly involved in X-ray diffraction experiments, such as X-ray fluorescence photons, thereby providing better signal-to-noise ratio modes.

Cobalt tube and copper tube options: The Olympus XRD analyzer comes standard with a sturdy and durable cobalt (Co) target X-ray tube. This type of anode ray tube is widely favored by geologists and mineralogists because it can perform excellently in analyzing samples with high iron (Fe) content. However, in certain applications (such as high manganese content in samples), copper (Cu) target X-ray tubes are required. According to the specific application needs of users, Olympus can provide either of these two types of anode target X-ray tubes.

How does Olympus' XRD analyzer work

Olympus XRD diffractometer uses a fast and convenient method to collect and process XRD data.

The powder is placed between two polyester or polyimide film windows, as shown in the following figure.

Thanks to our convection technology, every grain of the sample in the sample chamber will be irradiated with an X-ray beam in every possible direction within 30 seconds. Through this method, Olympus XRD instruments can achieve 100% randomization of sample detection, which is also a key factor for accurate and precise X-ray diffraction analysis. The Olympus XRD analyzer only requires 15 milligrams of sample to simultaneously collect all practical 2-theta measurement data. The absence of moving parts also contributes to the reliable performance and almost maintenance free advantage of our XRD analyzer.
