Apparatus for guiding X-rays from a radiation source to a measurement object ( ) having at least two reflecting areas ( ) forming a slit.

Apparatus for guiding X-rays

The invention relates to a method of setting a position of an object of measurement in layer thickness measurement by X-ray fluorescence in which a beam of an optical recording device is projected into the beam of the X-radiation and in which the surface of the object of measurement is recorded and output as an image comprising a number of image points, with the distance between the surface and the collimator being changed by an absolute amount of a path of movement, with changes in brightness of the image points being recorded in at least one measuring plane during the at least one change of the distance between the surface and the collimator, with the maximum of the difference in brightness of the image points of an image being ascertained after the at least one change of the absolute amount of the distance, and with the distance between the collimator and the object of measurement being set to the position of the ascertained maximum of the difference in brightness.

Method of setting a position of an object of measurement in layer thickness measurement by X-ray fluorescence

A specimen part for determining the intensity data of a measuring spot in X-ray fluorescent analysis is characterized in that it has a probe with a clearly defined contour surrounded by a surrounding material, the surrounding material and the probe material having the same linear attenuation coefficients for the emitted X-ray fluorescent radiation. With a method according to the invention it is possible to determine both the intensity centre and the contour of the measuring spot.
