Xradia: A Pioneering Provider of Innovative X-Ray Microscopes
In the first of an occasional series of articles profiling companies that supply or use SLAC facilities, we look at Pleasanton-based Xradia, Inc., which designs and makes innovative X-ray microscopes.
A former Department of Energy scientist who invented a better way to make X-ray microscopes for high-resolution 3-D imaging has turned that idea into a thriving company that now makes equipment for SLAC’s Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Lightsource (SSRL) and many other synchrotrons worldwide.
Twelve years ago, Wenbing Yun left his job as a beamline scientist at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory’s Advanced Light Source to commercialize a device he invented to efficiently focus X-rays with a tapered hollow glass tube.
Now his company, Xradia, Inc., has more than 100 employees producing X-ray microscopes and optics for scientists worldwide working in areas as diverse as life sciences, materials science,
