Components of an EDS detector - Oxford Instruments Bitesized Learning

Discover the components of an Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) detector, from the software to the hardware. Using animated sketches, we discuss the variety of EDS detectors on the market. The most important part of the detector, where the variability lies, is in the detector head. Zoom in on the EDS detector head to learn about the integrated components and about silicon drift detectors (SDDs).
