EIGER2 X/XE CdTe Series

Description

DECTRIS EIGER2® X/XE CdTe photon-counting detectors provide high quantum efficiency for hard X-ray energies up to 100 keV, with a spatial resolution of 75 µm. Their cadmium-telluride sensor, which is 750 µm thick, brings all the advantages of EIGER2 X-ray detectors to high-energy applications. A high frame rate up to 2,000 kHz; under 100 ns of effective dead time between exposures; and ideal counting statistics enabled by a sharp, single-pixel point-spread function guarantee outstanding performance and accurate data collection.

Furthermore, these beamline detectors offer two independent energy thresholds that will enable you to suppress fluorescence background (with the lower threshold) while measuring the contribution of higher harmonics (with the upper threshold).

EIGER2 X/XE CdTe detectors come in different geometries and performances, and with optional vacuum capability. DECTRIS’ dedicated Support and Commissioning team will help you minimize any downtime.
