Irish folklore claims it’s possible to find gold at the end of the rainbow. But how do you know if gold is pure? Jewelers, gold retailers and resellers face this question daily due to the rise of plated or counterfeit precious metals. Using our handheld analyzer that leverages X-ray fluorescence, any user can simply point and shoot high energy X-rays at the material in question to accurately test the purity and chemistry of the sample. By comparing these results with pure metals, counterfeits or impurities are quickly identified, avoiding costly mistakes of undervaluing or misrepresenting their products. Learn more about how our technology can help ensure your pot of gold is real if you’re lucky enough to find it, and happy St. Patrick’s Day! https://lnkd.in/gfxmB6mJ

The performance of next-generation batteries that power everything from consumer electronics to electric vehicles can be significantly enhanced by optimizing the texture of metals used to store energy, according to a new published study from Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering at the University of Chicago and Thermo Fisher Scientific. Researchers were able to overcome a significant hurdle by using two advanced microscopy techniques that enabled highly detailed texture analysis of soft metals, says Thermo Fisher’s Zhao Liu, Ph.D., a co-author on the study.
