Lynx U

A holistic approach for laboratory X-ray spectroscopy

This device offers you both extended X-ray absorption and X-ray emission spectroscopy, to get the most information out of your laboratory device. It combines LynX X and LynX E, arranged on opposite sides of the X-ray source, in some cases even allowing parallel acquisition on both sides.
