X-rays were first discovered by Wilhelm K. Roentgen (German physicist, 1845-1923) who won the Nobel Prize in 1901, for the discovery of x-rays. X-rays have been used for commercial elemental analysis since the 1950’s.

Energy dispersive x-ray fluorescence (EDXRF) relies on the detector and detector electronics to resolve spectral peaks due to different energy x-rays.
Wavelength dispersive x-ray fluorescence (WDXRF) is the old timer among commercial x-ray spectrometers, since the method works without high-resolution solid-state detectors.
In an effort to save money, space, sample preperation time, or simply to add an analytical instrument to their process many companies will decide to evaluate energy dispersive x-ray fluorescence (ED-XRF) analyzers as a substitute for their standard wavelength dispersive […]
