Abstract

Results of recent experiments on microanalyses with an X-ray projection microscope will be reviewed. As the use of monochromatic radiation is imperative, spectral analyses of the point source were carried out. A simple stationary divergent-beam-type transmission spectrograph was used. The shape and size were miniaturized to fit in the specimen holder of the Norelco projection unit. Emission spectra from clean, targets and the fluorescent radiation emerging from a 10- to 50-μ-diameter spot of contaminated targets and of two-layer targets will be shown. The spectra were recorded photographically. In addition, a proportional counter, in combination with the R.C.L. 128-channel pulse-height analyzer, was used for measuring the ratio of “white” to line radiation.
