Dear ,

let me start by stating how grateful I am for your trust in our products in 2018 and hopefully also in the upcoming year – I know you work hard to do exciting new science and it's a privilege to be a part of that! I’m also very grateful to our dedicated operators, engineers and scientists, who support you on your path.

DECTRIS did many great things in 2018, and delivering three flagship EIGER2 X 16M detectors in December was definitely the highlight. In 2019, we continue to support scientific discoveries at synchrotrons and laboratories, and we help create breakthroughs with industry partners. Also, we are pushing to strengthen our products for electron detection. Therefore I am very excited to see Micro Electron Diffraction get the attention it deserves. I promise DECTRIS will be there to push the limits of this field, too. Perhaps I'll see you there!

Christian

P.S. It's time to apply for the DECTRIS Award 2019 for innovative work on DECTRIS detectors, and I would love to see submissions also from rising electron diffraction talent!

P.P.S. We can continue the conversation on Twitter and LinkedIn.

DECTRIS Award 2019

The DECTRIS Award recognizes innovative researchers and helps them share their findings with a broader audience at a scientific conference. Last year, Markus Osterhoff received the prize for enabling high-throughput data analysis, and he presented his work at the International Conference for Synchrotron Radiation in Taipei. The second DECTRIS Award widens the scope: in addition to X-ray research, we would love to see applications from scientists using electron methods.

Learn more about the DECTRIS Award and submit your work.

HPC detectors change how we see and do X-ray spectroscopy

Hybrid photon counting is not an exclusive privilege of X-ray diffraction scientists: the technology pushes the envelope also in X-ray spectroscopy. Our new application note shows some very good examples from synchrotrons, but we also demonstrate how hybrid photon counting detectors have been successfully used to detect wide energy spectra in a single shot with laboratory spectrometers with excellent resolution.
