Extract

An x-ray microfluorescence (XRMF) spectrometer has been designed and fabricated at NIST for multi-point compositional analysis of small samples with x-ray beam sizes on the order of 50 micrometers or greater. This system was developed as part of an industrial cooperative research agreement with Kevex Instruments, Inc., San Carlos, CA., and consists of commercially available components incorporated in an aluminum vacuum chamber (see Figs. 1 and 2).
