Thermo Fisher Scientific
Inc., the world leader in serving science, today announced the new Thermo
Scientific Escalab 250Xi X-ray photoelectron spectrometer (XPS). This fully
integrated surface characterization tool is designed to meet the demands of
surface engineers whether working in cutting-edge research and development of
new surface chemistries or dealing with routine characterization of surfaces,
thin films and coatings.
 | | Thermo Fisher Scientific Introduces Escalab 250Xi Fully Integrated X-ray Photoelectron Spectrometer for Chemical Surface Characterization |
The Escalab 250Xi is the latest development in the world renowned Thermo Scientific
Escalab product line. The new instrument integrates premier spectrometer performance
with the Thermo Scientific Avantage XPS acquisition and processing user interface.
This combination of instrumentation and software combines high sample throughput
with market leading analytical performance, essential for tackling the complex
materials characterization needs of today's surface analysis applications. Additionally,
the integration of an advanced parallel image detection system enables quantitative
spectroscopic analysis of small features within the image field of view.
The Avantage Data System offers exceptional levels of productivity via an optimized
workflow that guides analysts through data acquisition, interpretation, processing
and report generation. Avantage offers full digital tool control while providing
a comprehensive range of XPS spectrum and image processing routines. Customized
laboratory reporting templates allow analysis reports to be easily exported
to standard PC applications, such as Microsoft Office, at the click of a mouse.
The Escalab 250Xi platform flexibility enables analysts to configure the system
with a range of other surface characterization techniques. Ion scattering spectroscopy
(ISS) and reflection electron energy loss spectroscopy (REELS) are provided
with the instrument while ultra violet photoelectron spectroscopy (UPS) and
Auger electron spectroscopy (AES) are available as options. A sample preparation
chamber is provided with the instrument as standard. Where required, the system
can be expanded with a selection of sample preparation options and additional
experimental chambers.
