Secondary Targets:The Genius IF has a unique patented geometry combining eight secondary targets, with eight customizable tube filters used in direct excitation mode, to allow optimal excitation of all elements that can be detected in EDXRF.

The WAG (Wide Angle Geometry) patented secondary target technique provides the best results for major, minor and trace element analysis.

The X-ray tube excites the characteristic K lines of a secondary target (a pure metal) which are used to excite the sample “monochromatically”.By using secondary targets, the detection limits for certain elements can be lowered even further.

These lower detection limits make the Genius IF suitable for a larger range of applications that had previously not been accessible to conventional ED-XRF instruments, and turn this instrument into the most versatile elemental analyzer available.

Secondary target versus direct excitation mode (example):

The figure shows the much improved peak to background ratio, when using secondary target excitation (see main red spectrum) versus using direct excitation mode (black contour spectrum).
