JEOL JXA-733 Superprobe

The JEOL electron microprobe (733) in the National Centre of Excellence in Geology is equipped with energy dispersive spectrometer (Bruker-AXS XFlash® Detector) and automatic software (QUANTX) for efficient, fully automated analyses. The XFlash® detector is extremely fast, enables processing of up to 1.000.000 signals per second for classical point analysis and facilitates real time ColorScan, ultra fast mapping and Electron imaging. The spectrometer data transfers through high-speed data interface in real time to the QUANTAX software.

Standardless spectrum analysis: QUANTAX provides advanced true standardless spectrum analysis based on the P/B-ZAF formalism. The self-calibrating P/B-ZAF analysis provides absolute (none normalized) results without standardizing or reference measurement and is optimally suited for remote spectrum analysis. The P/B-ZAF formalism is extraordinarily tolerant of varying measuring conditions and sample states, yielding reasonable quantitative results even with completely unprocessed samples.

Standard related analysis: Standard related analysis is provided on the bases of the P/B-ZAF correction with reference to standard library.
