Lexsyg Research Imaging TL-OSL-RF System



Lexsyg Research Imaging TL-OSL-RF System

Modular TL/OSL System for Advanced Luminescence Research

The Lexsyg Research Imaging TL-OSL-RF System is a modular luminescence measurement system for thermoluminescence (TL), optically stimulated luminescence (OSL), and radiofluorescence (RF) measurements. Its modular design supports configurable optical stimulation, detection, and irradiation options.

The system can accommodate interchangeable OSL stimulation units with up to three wavelengths per unit, an automatic detector changer supporting up to four detector positions, and up to three irradiation sources. The measurement chamber and sample changer operate independently.

Applications include geological and archaeological dating, dosimetry, radiation protection, solid-state dosimetry, and material research.

Features

Thermal Stimulation

  • Ceramic heating element
  • Temperature range from room temperature up to 710 °C
  • Programmable heating and cooling rates from 0.1 to 20 °C/s
  • Programmable stepwise heating and cooling cycles
  • Software-controlled temperature functions, including nonlinear heating and cooling
  • Heating-element cooling using a continuous flow of nitrogen or compressed air
  • Supports TL, preheat, elevated-temperature luminescence measurements, and irradiation during programmed heating and cooling cycles

Optical Stimulation

  • Interchangeable OSL stimulation units configurable with up to three wavelengths per unit
  • High-power LED and laser-diode stimulation sources
  • Feedback-stabilized OSL stimulation
  • Continuous Wave OSL (CW-OSL)
  • Linear Modulated OSL (LM-OSL)
  • Pulsed OSL (POSL)
  • Standard 10 µs pulsed OSL, with an optional ultra-fast time-resolved luminescence configuration
  • Software-controlled detection-filter changes within programmed measurement sequences

Modular Configuration

  • Automatic detector changer supporting up to four detector positions
  • PMT, CCD/EMCCD imaging, and spectrometry detection options available depending on configuration
  • Up to three irradiation sources, with Beta, Alpha, and X-ray options available
  • Modular design supports future expansion with compatible components

Sample Handling and Operation

  • Automatic 80-position sample changer
  • Independent operation of the measurement chamber and sample changer
  • Samples can be loaded or unloaded while another sample is undergoing measurement or treatment
  • Independent chamber and sample-changer operation prevents stimulation and irradiation crosstalk
  • IP-based remote operation and technical-support capability

Applications

  • Geological and archaeological dating
  • Material research
  • Authenticity testing
  • Retrospective, forensic, and accident dosimetry
  • Radiation protection
  • Food irradiation
  • Solid-state dosimetry
  • Bioluminescence
  • Single-grain and spatially resolved luminescence analysis
  • Radiofluorescence/radioluminescence (RF/RL)
  • Luminescence emission spectroscopy
