Abstract

AbstractThe efficiency dependence on detector window area for three different geometries of source excited energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence (EDXRF) analysis systems are calculated using the Monte Carlo method. Two typical samples (coal and oil) are considered for discussion. The results show that the efficiency is affected mainly by geometric factors: source-to-sample distance and absorption of the exciting X-rays; fluorescent photon self-absorption has a much smaller effect.
