XIA LLC invents, develops and markets advanced digital data acquisition and processing systems for x-ray, gamma-ray, and other radiation detector applications in university research, national laboratories and industry. Our instruments fall into three broad categories – supporting x-ray detectors, gamma-ray detectors, and ultra-low background counting.
Our DXP x-ray detector electronics span the spectrum from low cost OEM cards for handheld and benchtop applications to PXI and standalone modules for ultra high rate counting at synchrotrons and elsewhere. Our gamma-ray detector electronics cover an ever wider range of (typically) research applications from pulse shape analysis using high speed scintillators to very high energy resolution HPGe spectrometry, to coincidence data collection in large nuclear physics detector arrays. Our ultra-low background instrumentation combines anticoincidence and pulse shape analysis to reliably count samples producing only a few counts per day.
XIA offers a friendly yet highly stimulating technical environment. We regularly collaborate with US National Laboratories and industrial partners, carrying out original scientific research, as well as more conventional product-oriented engineering. Our culture is thus a challenging but rewarding mix of academic intellectual rigor, and nut-and-bolts engineering. Successful candidates will be intellectually stimulated both by working with top-level specialists — inside the company and out — and by developing products that significantly advance the state of the art.
