The ultra-narrow 10 µm X-ray beam has been made possible with the development of HORIBA's original X-ray guide tube.
While the specimen is being scanned, the X-ray guide tube irradiates the specimen with an X-ray beam, with the CCD camera and X-ray detector working in linked operation. The result is a completely seamless merger of optical microscope observation and the element analysis functions of the X-ray analyzer.
The XGT-5000 represents a completely new generation of microscopes, and the XGT leads the way to a new era of science.
