The XR-100SDD Silicon Drift Detector (SDD) is Amptek’s latest addition to its line of x-ray detectors that revolutionized the industry. Its high performance, small size, and low cost make it the ideal detector for OEM hand-help applications to bench-top analyzers. The silicon drift detector (SDD) enables extremely high count rate applications with excellent energy resolution. The detector is housed inside the same TO-8 package as Amptek’s other detectors, so its form-factor is a direct replacement for current systems.
