Abstract
The detection efficiency of the submilli-PIXE camera was improved by installing a new X-ray detector with a smaller distance from specimens. The distortion of elemental images caused by position dependent detection efficiency was corrected by estimating the detection efficiency based on the geometrical configuration of the detection system. The detection efficiency of characteristic X-rays from heavy elements such as iron and bromine became from 11 to 23 times higher than the previous system. The signal to noise ratios was improved from 1.8 to 2.5 times higher and detection limit was also decreased from 1/8 to 1/6 compared to the previous system. The in-air submilli-PIXE camera with improved detection system can be useful to biological applications.
