Examples of XRF and PIXE imaging with few microns Resolution using SLcam® – a Color X-Ray Camera

Nowak, S. H.; Bjeoumikhov, A.; von Borany, J.; Buchriegler, J.; Munnik, F.; Petric, A.; Renno, A. D.; Radtke, A.; Reinholz, U.; Scharf, O.; Strüder, L.; Wedell, R.; Ziegenrücker, R.

The Color X-ray Camera, type SLcam®, can detect X-ray radiation with spatial and energy resolution. The device is used as an X-ray detector in applications at synchrotrons and on PIXE beamlines. The unique properties of SLcam®, a combination of a single photon counting CCD with a polycapillary optics objective, allows a fast overview over a large detection area with first results visible almost immediately.
The maximal field of view exceeds 1 cm² and the spatial resolution can Approach several microns when using a sub-pixel algorithm.
