Mössbauer Spectrometer for integration with 3rd party products

Sample volume investigation

General information

Usage

  • Transmission geometry, the gamma radiation is going through the sample, the detector on the other side is collecting absorption spectrum
  • Designed for integration with 3rd party products like cryostats, high temperature furnaces,…

Sample types

  • Powder
  • Thin bulk samples (must be transparent for 14.4 keV gamma photon radiation)
