Welcome to Excillum

Excillum develops and produces extreme-brightness microfocus x-ray sources for a wide variety of applications. The unique metal-jet-anode concept of the Excillum x-ray source enables a more than tenfold increase of x-ray brightness. This directly translates into significantly decreased exposure times for the end user.

The Excillum source is the natural choice for system integrators whose equipment performance is source limited. This patented microfocus source technology can be used to enhance all x-ray applications such as x-ray diffraction, x-ray fluorescence, 3D micro tomography, non-destructive testing, and phase-contrast imaging.

The innovative Excillum x-ray source concept is based on high speed metal-jet anode technology, and has already demonstrated a performance increase by a factor of 10 over existing microfocus tubes. Not only will this improve current applications, but also enable new applications that are not practically feasible with today's limited performance of a conventional microfocus x-ray source.
