  6. X-rays White radiation Produced upon "collisions" with electrons in target Any amount of energy can be lost up to a max. amount Continuous variation of wavelength Characteristic radiation Specific energies absorbed Specific x-ray wavelengths emitted Wavelengths characteristic of target atom type

  12. X-rays Typical tube spectrum

  13. Iconts = AiZV~2 Ichar = Ai(V-Vcrit)~1.5 E >> hc/Kedge E > hc/Kedge E ≈ hc/Kedge X-rays - vary tube voltage Intensity Wavelength

  14. X-rays More electron transitions

  15. X-rays Cu spectrum

  16. X-rays Al spectrum

  17. X-rays Au L spectrum

  18. X-rays Moseley's law - energy vs. atomic number

  19. X-ray sources Sealed tubes - Coolidge type common - Cu, Mo, Fe, Cr, W, Ag Ka = (2 Ka1 + Ka2)/3

  20. X-ray sources Sealed tubes - Coolidge type common - Cu, Mo, Fe, Cr, W, Ag intensity limited by cooling requirements (2-2.5kW) (~99% of energy input converted to heat)

  21. Intensity changes with take-off angle  But resolution decreases with take-off angle X-ray sources

  22. X-ray sources

  23. Other X-ray sources Rotating anode high power - 40 kW demountable various anode types

  24. Other X-ray sources Synchrotron need electron or positron beam orbiting in a ring beam is bent by magnetic field x-ray emission at bend Advantages 10-4 - 10-5 radians divergence (3-5 mm @ 4 m) high brilliance wavelength tunable

  25. Other X-ray sources Synchrotron Advantages 10-4 - 10-5 rad divergence (3-5 mm @ 4 m) high brilliance wavelength tunable

  26. Other X-ray sources Synchrotron need electron or positron beam orbiting in a ring beam is bent by magnetic field x-ray emission at bend Advantages 10-4 - 10-5 rad divergence (3-5 mm @ 4 m) high brilliance wavelength tunable high signal/noise ratio

  27. X-ray sources Synchrotron Advantages 10-4 - 10-5 rad divergence (3-5 mm @ 4 m) high brilliance wavelength tunable

  29. Beam conditioning Collimation

  30. X-rays detector filter specimen Beam conditioning Monochromatization -filters – materials have atomic nos. 1 or 2 less than anode 50-60% beam attenuation placing after specimen/before detector filters most of specimen fluorescence allows passage of high intensity & long wavelength white radiation

  32. Beam conditioning Monochromatization Crystal monochromators – LiF, SiO2, pyrolytic graphite critical – reflectivity ex: for MoK, LiF 9.4% graphite 54 %

  33. Beam conditioning Monochromatization Crystal monochromators – LiF, SiO2, pyrolytic graphite critical – reflectivity ex: for MoK, LiF 9.4% graphite 54 % resolution – determines peak/bkgrd ratio & spectral purity best - Si – 10" graphite – 0.52°

  34. Beam conditioning Monochromatization Monochromator shape usually flat – problems with divergent beams concentrating type – increases I by factor of 1.5-2
