Abstract
The X-ray spectrograph basically consists of three components that determine the sensitivity:
-
1.
Source of excitation, which includes the X-ray tube target and the type of high voltage generator.
-
2.
Optics, which includes collimation and the choice of crystal monochromator.
-
3.
Detectors, including pulse-height selection.
