摘要
The James L. Waters Symposium 2012 had five invited speakers to describe the development and commercialization of portable, hand-held X-ray fluorescence (XRF) spectrometers. Lee Grodzins described the birth and the maturation of hand-held XRF (HHXRF) spectrometers. Andrew Ellis described how the stainless-steel industry in Finland led to the development of X-MET HHXRF analyzers. Charles Jensen reviewed the performance improvements in miniature X-ray sources made by his company, Moxtek. Alan Huber explained how his company, Amptek, led the development of detectors for HHXRF. Stanislaw Piorek detailed the evolution of analytical capabilities of field-portable, HHXRF analyzers.
