Event Overview:
Are you interested in learning how XOS can enhance your micro-XRF analysis using polycapillary optics? This webcast will teach you just that! You will have the opportunity to learn about:
- Fundamentals of the physics behind our optics
- Different types of optics, optic performance & application
- Polycapillary subsystem application options
In addition, we will also share a few of our success stories related to polycapillary X-ray optics – including our part in the Mars 2020 mission!
Key Learning Objectives:
- Develop a clear understanding of an X-ray optical system and its importance for both the system designers and the end users.
- Understand the different polycapillary optic types and their benefits.
- modate the needs of pharmaceutical testing laboratories
- Learn how and why SRC technology is uniquely suited for the sample preparation needs of the pharmaceutical industry
- Understand the important factors for successful metals analysis of pharmaceutical matrices using ICP-MS or ICP-OES

This interactive e-book celebrates National Forensic Science Week by highlighting the vital role of spectroscopy in modern criminal investigations and emphasizing how technological innovation is making forensic analysis faster, safer, and more reliable for courtroom testimony.
An upcoming talk at SciX 2026 Conference will describe a new multimodal platform using laser ablation inductively coupled plasma–mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS) elemental mapping that can detect nanoparticles and microplastics in biological tissue.
Top content published this week include a feature article on a new innovation called the Personalized Optical Digital Twin (PODT), a recap of the International Conference on Raman Spectroscopy (ICORS) 2026 show, and a Q&A on measuring nanoparticle formation in indoor air.
In the final part of our conversation with Brandon Boor of Purdue University, he explains the respiratory deposition model his team used to analyze indoor particle exposure.
In the second part of our interview with Brandon Boor of Purdue University, he discusses how his team controls experimental variables during cleaning experiments in order to obtain interpretable data.
An upcoming interview with Ji-Xin Cheng, a Theodore Moustakas Distinguished Professor in Photonics and Optoelectronics at Boston University, will highlight his ongoing work in coherent Raman scattering microscopy.
The bulky bench-top NIR spectrometer is quietly being dismantled and rebuilt as a wafer-scale photonic chip, a self-calibrating algorithm, and a sensor small enough to ride in a shirt pocket. What once demanded a grating, a moving mirror, and a climate-controlled lab now fits inside a handheld module, a bioreactor probe, or a drone payload, and it increasingly figures out what it is looking at on its own.
