Introducing POLLUX Our Most Versatile XRD Detector Yet
Success Stories // 27.08.2025

We are proud to share that our article—“Enhancing high‑energy powder X‑ray diffraction applications using a PILATUS4 CdTe detector” (Donath et al. J. Synchr. Rad. 2025, 32, 378) has been published.

This study was conducted in collaboration with scientists at the MAX IV Laboratory (Sweden) and the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility (ESRF, France). Using the new PILATUS4 CdTe detector, we pushed the limits of resolution, speed, and performance in high-energy PXRD.

Meet our new Application Scientist Hans Gildenast! Hans is an experienced DECTRIS detector user and passionate crystallographer who will be working with researchers, understanding their projects, and helping them achieve their scientific goals with DECTRIS detectors. 

X-ray diffraction // 09.07.2025

The purpose of this white paper is to explore the synergy between Excillum’s pioneering high-energy Indium MetalJet X-ray sources and DECTRIS’s advanced CdTe HPC detectors. By combining these two state-ofthe-art technologies, new possibilities in high-energy diffraction and scattering applications can be unlocked, bridging the gap between synchrotron-based research and laboratory-scale experimentation.
