Abstract

The X-ray fluorescence method is advantageous in terms of non-destructive elemental analysis as well as convenience of operation, while the results of analysis are strongly dependent on the specimen. Photoacoustic measurements provide information about the thermal properties of bulk and layered materials. So far, photoacoustic measurements have been limited to UV through IR spectral regions. Recently, photoacoustic measurements in the X-ray region were successfully conducted using conventional X-ray tubes (1,2) and synchrotron radiation (3,4) as exciting sources. The former experiment using an X-ray tube can be easily combined with X-ray fluorescence measurements, and will provide a new analytical tool for materials science. On the basis of these findings, the simultaneous measurement of photoacoustic and fluorescence signals has been attempted on an X-ray fluorescence spectrometer equipped with a photoacoustic cell designed for this purpose.
