CA 2665216

A method for obtaining a concentrated, monochromatic x-ray beam from a standard x-ray tube or other source of polychromatic emission. X-rays from the anode of the x-ray tube fluoresce an adjoining, independent target that produces a monochromatic spectrum, a portion of which is focused by the x-ray optical system. This two-stage method gives the system considerably versatility without undue loss in signal. The two-stage concentrator makes practical the use of focusing optics in hand-held and portable instruments.

L'invention concerne un procédé pour obtenir un faisceau de rayons X monochromatique concentré à partir d'un tube à rayons X standard, ou à partir d'une autre source d'émission poly-chromatique. Les rayons X provenant de l'anode du tube de rayons X produisent la fluorescence d'une cible indépendante voisine qui produit un spectre monochromatique, et dont une partie est focalisée par le système optique de rayons X. Ce procédé à deux étages donne au système une souplesse considérable sans perte indue de signal. Le concentrateur à deux étages rend pratique l'utilisation des éléments optiques de focalisation dans des instruments à main ou portables.
