Skyscan 1294
Small Specs
Phase-contrast computed tomography system
60 kV X-ray source
4000 * 2672 pixel 12 bit detector
5.7 µm min. voxel size
The SkyScan 1294 desktop phase-contrast X-ray microtomograph was installed at the FH OÖ Wels Campus in January 2015. The system includes a specially designed micro-focus X-ray source, a 11 megapixel X-ray camera and a precise three-grating Talbot-Lau X-ray interferometer for simultaneous extraction of absorption contrast, differential phase contrast and dark-field images. This phase-contrast system will primarily be used for detailed investigation of polymeric and biologic material systems. The technical data on the device is listed below:
- 60-kV-microfocus tube with a focal spot diameter of 33 µm
- 4000 * 2672 pixel 12 bit detector
- Measurement of materials with low density < 2 g/cm³
- Minimum voxel size: 5.7 µm
- Sample diameter < 20 mm
- Sample length < 60 mm
