Genesis
Apex
The
Genesis Apex system incorporates improvements in the silicon
drift detector (SDD) technology, digital pulse processing
electronics and analytical software.
It
is designed around the latest in (SDD) chip technology in
the Apollo SDD series, new digital pulse processing electronics,
DPP III, and Genesis analytical software Version 6.
The
latest version of the EDAX EDS software, GENESIS 6 includes
many new advanced features to enhanced EDS capabilities including
Expert ID and SnapShot.
EXpert
ID is the new standard in accurate element identification
by achieving optimum peak identification. SnapShot enables
the user to automatically acquire spectra at user-defined
time intervals to examine the interaction of samples and the
electron beam.
GENESIS
X-ray microanalysis software is a powerful, easy to use, single
window user interface allowing for straightforward and flexible
analysis. All the necessary tools and detector controls available
within one software package and the Genesis software is controlled
via an easy to use COPILOT panel so the tools needed by 90%
of users, 90% of the time are always easily available.
The
EDAM IV has capacity for additional PCI boards enabling the
Genesis Apex 4 to control up to multiple detectors providing
the user with complete microanalysis capabilities including
multiple combinations of EDS, WDS and EBSD.
The
Apex systems DPP-III electronics are specifically designed
for SDD with optimised pulse pile up correction to ensure
that the maximum number of input counts are available to the
analytical software.
The
DPPIII digital pulse processing electronics features:
| • |
operates
optimally at short shaping times to reduce dead time effects
|
| • |
capable
of handling over 1,000,000 input cps to produce a throughput
of over 300,000 cps |
| • |
state
of the art pulse pile-up correction to minimize artifacts
in the spectrum |
| • |
capable
of operating in parallel with other DPP electronics for
multiple detector configurations |
Apollo
Silicon Drift Detector series:
| • |
Apollo
SDD Detectors offer resolution down to 123eV at MnK and
below 50eV at CK |
| • |
Apollo
SDD Detectors provide first-in-class peak to background
ratios up to 15,000:1 |
