Calibration Method for Confocal X-Ray Microanalysis with Polychromatic Excitation by C. Sosa, V. Stoytschew, J. Leani, H. J. Sánchez, C. A. Pérez, R. D. Perez

“…To apply the fundamental parameters method at the confocal setup the knowledge of the sensitivity of the spectrometer is required which depends on the characteristics of two X-ray lenses: one in the excitation channel and another in the detection channel. For the particular case of polychromatic excitation, the theory shows that the focalization properties of the excitation lens for all incident energies affect the X-ray fluorescence intensity. …”
