TriLambda Nano-XRM – 40 nm high resolution x-ray microscope

from SIGRAY

Tri Lambda ™-40 3D nano x-ray microscope is the highest resolution (40 nm) laboratory x-ray microscope in the world, with the power to image internal nanostructure and optimized performance in a wide range of samples, spanning everything from cells and polymers to geological samples and metals.

Further information

The TriLambda40™ system was developed to help research groups performing XRM experiments primarily at synchrotron setups who are limited by beamtime and who needed ultra-high resolution. The TriLambda40™ advantages at a glance are:

  • Highest resolution 3D XRM, with 40 nanometer spatial resolution
  • Patent-pending x-ray source with multiple x-ray source target materials for unique advantages including dual energy imaging and optimization of acquisition speed
  • Optimized throughput for time-based (4D) & in-situ studies
  • Designed by the world’s foremost experts on x-ray microscopes

Sigray has developed an ultrahigh brightness x-ray source featuring an x-ray target comprised of multiple materials in close thermal contact with a diamond substrate. Software selection of the target material enables rapid switching between different characteristic x-ray energies of each material, for example:

  • 8 keV (for metallic and semicon samples)
  • 6,4 keV (for ceramics)
  • 5,4 keV (for rock samples, stained cells and bones)
  • 2,7 keV (for unstained cells)
