Well since Jim answered I must do also!! Bruker, together with Incoatec, has on the market a new Incoatec Microfocus Source with novel QUAZAR multilayer optics which in my understanding is significantly brighter than the other systems referred to. This source is very interesting as it is air cooled - no need for plumbing.
All these models are excellent for their performance compared to the older style 5.4 kw 300 micron focus generators and are small footprint, simple systems. They do not equal the brightness of the current microfocus rotating anode generators (eg Bruker MICROSTAR ULTRA) which have greatly surpassed the older style 300 micron systems. We try to give you new technology to help you do excellent science. All the best Sue Byram ............................................ Susan K.
