Neutron activation analysis services for archaeology, earth science, and geology.
Neutron activation analysis service
Neutron activation analysis can accurately quantify multiple elements simultaneously. It is capable of analyzing various materials such as soil, minerals, rocks, and sediments.
Advantages of Neutron Activation Analysis 1) Analysis can be performed with a small amount of sample (approximately a few mg to a few g). 2) A wide range of analyzable concentrations, from ppm or ppb (standard is ppm) levels to several tens of percent. 3) High precision (uncertainty: standard 4-5%). 4) Does not depend on the physical shape or chemical state of the analyzed elements; standardization of the same matrix composition is unnecessary. Analyzable Elements A) Elements requiring long irradiation for analysis: Ag, As, Au, Ba, Br, Ca, Ce, Cd, Co, Cr, Cs, Er, Eu, Fe, Ga, Ge, Gd, Hf, Hg, Ho, Ir, K, La, Lu, Mo, Nb, Nd, Os, Pd, Pr, Pt, Rb, Re, Ru, Sb, Sc, Se, Sm, Sn, Sr, Ta, Tb, Te, Th, Tm, U, W, Yb, Zn, Zr B) Elements that can be analyzed with short irradiation: Al, Ca, Cl, Cu, Dy, I, In, Mg, Mn, Na, Rh, Ti, V C) DNAA method (short irradiation): U ◎ For more details, please refer to the PDF document.

Company information
Enatech handles a wide range of silicon wafer-related products and responds quickly and accurately to customer requests. With over 40 years since its establishment, we have supported a part of the semiconductor industry, primarily in the Si field. Through cooperation with silicon manufacturers and processing companies both domestically and internationally, we provide a stable supply of silicon materials not only to Japan but also to overseas markets. We mainly sell evaluation test wafers and film deposition wafers to semiconductor and solar cell manufacturers (as well as contract processing such as regeneration), and in the field of dummy wafers, we have two warehouses for Si sorting processes in Japan, allowing us to introduce various types of wafers to meet customer needs. In addition to CZ silicon wafers, we also handle FZ silicon wafers, SOI wafers, diffusion wafers, SiGe, GaAs, InP, sapphire, germanium, SiC wafers, used equipment for semiconductors, ferrite cores, iron oxide, high-purity chemicals, and more.
