Abstract
The invention discloses a method for measuring the effective focus size of a microfocus X-ray source. The method comprises the steps: firstly, placing a flat panel which is made of high-density materials such as tungsten, tungsten alloy and platinum and has stronger X-ray absorption capability at a position before a focus f, drilling a micropore with the diameter d (the diameter can be properly greater than the size of the focus f) at a position above the flat panel dead against the focus; placing a detector (or a film) at a position having distance g away from the micropore, so as to acquire the size D of an image, formed through the micropore, of the focus f; then keeping the distance between the focus f and the detector (or the film) unchanged, moving the flat panel to the detector (or the film) by small distance, and measuring the distance g' between the micropore and the detector (or the film) and the image size D' of the focus f; and finally calculating the size of the focus f according to the acquired data. The method is applicable to measurement on the effective focus size of a microfocus X-ray source with effective focus size of less than 50[mu]m and voltage of less than 225kV.
