- Model：
Beamstops are miniature cylinders which block X-rays. They are predominantly used in X-ray microscopy. We offer a framed array of beamstops in various diameters. These beamstops are uniquely freestanding, which allows them to be used from a few 100 eV to several keV.
| Parameter | Information |
| Gold Thickness | > 80 µm |
Beamstop Diameter | 10 µm to 160 µm in increments of 10 µm |
| Open Area Diameter | 650 µm |
| Carrier Membrane | None (freestanding) Each cylinder is supported by 3 thin fins of 2.5 µm width |
Total Device Size | 4.5 mm x 4.5 mm |
| Mounting Hints | Beamstops of gold are sufficiently stable so that the devices can be clamped in simple holders |
The device consists of 16 beamstops with different diameters.
Custom Beamstops
We offer custom beamstops made to your specifications.
Options include particular gold heights, beamstop diameters,
and open area diameters.
