Non-destructive analysis of cultural objects by micro-XRF spectrometry is an advantageous multi-element technique that has rapidly developed during the past few years. Portable instruments contribute significantly to the in situ analysis of valuable cultural objects, which cannot be transported to the laboratory. Ancient ceramics are the most common archaeological findings and they carry a sign...

One of the advantages of X-ray fluorescence XRF analysis is its ability to perform accurate quantitative analysis over a wide range of elements with relative ease. In addition, its high sensitivity makes it ideal for trace elemental analysis. The establishment of analytical conditions for XRF is straightforward, including the determination of spectral line overlap correction factors. As with mo...

Within the HarvestPlus program there are many collaborators currently using X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) spectroscopy to measure Fe and Zn in their target crops. In India, five HarvestPlus wheat collaborators have laboratories that conduct this analysis and their throughput has increased significantly. The benefits of using XRF are its ease of use, minimal sample preparation and high throughput ana...

One of the latest developments in X-Ray Fluorescence Analysis (XRF) is 3D micro-XRF by means of two confocally aligned X-ray optics. Fig. 1 sketches the principle of this type of experimental setup. The foci of two X-ray optics, one in the excitation channel and the other in the detection channel, overlap and define a probing volume. This is typically demonstrated by scanning through the probin...

قدرت تفکیک دستگاه طیف‌نگار جرمی به صورت مستقیم شدت یون خروجی و انرژی آن بستگی دارد. مقدار تولید شده جریان باریکه الکترونی وابسته است. از جمله وظایف مدار کنترل چشمه برخورد تنظیم برای رسیدن بهینه می‌باشد. در ساخت پارامترهایی نظیر تثبیت آن، دقیق پتانسل الکتریکی لنز الکترودهای یونی بسیار حایز اهمیت این مقاله با قابلیت انتشار الکترون، پتانسیل نقاط طراحی ساخته شد. کنترلر بر روی طیف نگار 44Varian MAT ...

The term 'X-ray fluorescence analysis' (XRF) refers to the measurement of characteristic fluorescent emission resulting from the deexcitation of inner shell vacancies produced in the sample by means of a suitable source of radiation. For a particular energy (wavelength) of fluorescent light emitted by a sample, the number of photons per unit time (generally referred to as peak intensity or coun...

A pluridisciplinary approach was used to define iodine immobilization mechanisms by biocarbonates in a natural marine carbonate-bearing clayey formation. For this purpose, different techniques of observation (optical microscope, scanning electron microscope (SEM), cathodoluminescence (CL)) and of analyses (infrared spectrometry (IR), electron microprobe (EPMA), spatially resolved synchrotron-ba...
