A portable XRF analyzer using a silicon drift detector. In energy-dispersive analysis, dispersion and detection are a single operation, as already mentioned above. Proportional counters or various types of solid-state detectors (PIN diode, Si(Li), Ge(Li), silicon drift detector SDD) are used.
Improvements of the low-energy performance of a micro-focus x-ray source for XRF analysis with the SEM Procop, Mathias; et al. X‐Ray Spectrometry: An International Journal 38.4 (2009): 308-311. A microfocus X-ray source for improved EDS and XRF analysis in the SEM. Procop, Mathias, Vasile-Dan Hodoroaba, and Vanessa Rackwitz.
An X-ray generator generally contains an X-ray tube to produce the X-rays. Possibly, radioisotopes can also be used to generate X-rays. [1]An X-ray tube is a simple vacuum tube that contains a cathode, which directs a stream of electrons into a vacuum, and an anode, which collects the electrons and is made of tungsten to evacuate the heat generated by the collision.
XRF cannot replace the magnifying loupe and the diamond filer, when investigating metals for valuation or certification. Because of the excessive demand for internally precious metals in this time of great economic crisis, fake gold and silver are galore everywhere and people think handheld XRF is a divining rod, which it isn't.
Schematic of MWD XRF. Monochromatic wavelength dispersive x-ray fluorescence (MWD XRF) is an enhanced version of conventional wavelength-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (WDXRF) elemental analysis. The key difference is that MWD XRF uses a doubly curved crystal X-ray optic between the X-ray source and the sample resulting in monochromatic excitation.
Later NASA developments did lead to an X-ray spectrographic unit that did make the desired moon soil analysis. The Norelco efforts faded but the use of X-ray spectroscopy in units known as XRF instruments continued to grow. With a boost from NASA, units were finally reduced to handheld size and are seeing widespread use.
