Energy dispersive X-ray uorescence (EDXRF) is a routinely used analytical technique for the qualitative and
quantitative determination of major and minor atomic
elements in a wide variety of sample types. The heart
of its versatility stems from the ability to provide rapid,
non-destructive, multi-element analyses from low
parts-per-million (ppm) levels to high weight percent
(wt%) concentrations for elements from sodium (11Na)
to uranium (92U).
The versatile Rigaku NEX CG EDXRF spectrometer delivers
routine elemental measurements across a diverse range
of matrices from homogeneous, low viscosity liquids

Rigaku NEX CG software was developed to be both extraordinarily powerful and extremely easy to use. Ideal for
non-technical operators, routine analyses are performed
through a simplied customizable EZ Analysis interface:
1. Select the sample position and enter a name
2. Select the application method
3. Press start
The depth and breadth of features, as well as the sophistication of the interface is the result of decades of XRF
software development at Rigaku.

Unlike conventional EDXRF analyzers, the NEX CG was engineered with a
unique close-coupled Cartesian Geometry (CG) optical kernel that dramatically increases signal-to-noise. By using secondary target excitation, instead of
conventional direct excitation, sensitivity is further improved.
The resulting dramatic reduction in background noise, and simultaneous increase in element peaks, results in a spectrometer capable of routine trace element analysis even in difcult sample types. Up to ve

targets cover the complete

Cartesian geometry with secondary targets delivers exceptional signal-to-noise (orange spectrum)
as compared to a conventional system (blue
spectrum).
Excitation is provided by a 50 watt Pd-anode end-window X-ray tube. For maximum stability, the tube is tted with a shutter so that the tube may remain on
at all times for maximum stability and durability. An uninterruptible power supply (UPS) compensates for power line uctuations and extends tube life. Superior counting statistics and designed-in high stability translate into extraordinary
analytical performance.

A silicon drift detector (SDD) affords extremely high count rate capability with
excellent spectral resolution. This enables NEX CG to deliver the highest precision analytical results in the shortest possible measurement times.
