Ceramic XRD Tubes – Ceramic Series X-Ray Tubes for X-Ray Diffractometers

AXT can supply a comprehensive range of ceramic x-ray tubes to suit virtually any X-ray diffractometer (XRD). Our range of ceramic XRD tubes are available in any combination of anode material, anode length and focal spot size.

Ceramic X-ray tubes offer several benefits over glass tubes including:

  • Improved reproducibility of the focal spot position
  • Longer tube life
  • Uncompromised spectral purity
