Gepta‐EX: a multi‐channel germanium detector for X‐ray absorption fine structure
Journal of Synchrotron Radiation, EarlyView.Gepta‐EX is a compact seven‐channel high‐purity germanium detector designed to deliver high‐resolution fluorescence X‐ray absorption fine‐structure measurements at photon energies where silicon detectors become effectively transparent. It provides excellent energy resolution across a broad energy range, avoids silicon escape‐peak artifacts, and offers ...
