xtended X-ray Absorption
Regarding X-ray measurement elements suitable for fine 5 structure) equipment, particularly for performing highly accurate measurements [Prior art] Monochromatic X-rays that can scan the wavelength are irradiated onto a sample, and the intensity of the X-rays transmitted through the sample is measured. By measuring, an X-ray absorption spectrum can be obtained. In recent years, this fine vibrational structure of the absorption spectrum is called an exafus, and it has become known as a means of analyzing the state of materials such as amorphous materials by reflecting the local structure around the absorbing atoms.

った。In the EXAFS apparatus, in addition to measuring the intensity of signal X-rays transmitted through or emitted from the sample, the intensity of incident X-rays is always measured at the same time. The measured signal X-ray contains noise components such as the wavelength characteristics of the monochromator (monochromatic spectrometer) and temporal fluctuations in X-ray intensity, but since they are also included in the incident X-ray, simple division etc. This is because noise components can be removed through data processing. Further, the X-ray intensity measuring element of a normal device uses an ionization chamber filled with Ar, Ti2 gas, etc. However, since the entrance window and exit window v′i of the ionization chamber are partitioned by a Be film and a Kapton film, the soft X-ray region (10

った。Since the above-mentioned conventional technology uses an F3E film and a Kapton film for the entrance and exit windows of the TA box, absorption by these films is significant in the soft X-ray region, and it was necessary to consider a new measurement element.
本発明の目的は軟X線領域においてもEXAFSスペク
トルが得らnるようにすることにある。An object of the present invention is to enable EXAFS spectra to be obtained even in the soft X-ray region.
上記目的は、入射及び信号X線強度測定に同一測定原理
でかつ同一材料である固体測定素子を用いることにより
、達成される。しかし、入射測定子は入射光の大部分全
透過させ、一部を検出できるような構造とする。The above object is achieved by using solid-state measurement elements of the same measurement principle and of the same material for incident and signal X-ray intensity measurements. However, the incident probe has a structure that allows most of the incident light to completely pass through and detects only a portion of the incident light.
X線強度測定用固体素子の測定原理として、固体にX線
を照射すると、X線の強度に応じて光電子量が変化する
ことを利用している。The measurement principle of solid-state elements for measuring X-ray intensity is based on the fact that when a solid is irradiated with X-rays, the amount of photoelectrons changes depending on the intensity of the X-rays.
従って、入射及び信号X線強度の測定子の受光面を同一
材料で作り、かつ入射測定子のみ入射光の大部分を通過
させ一部だけしか取込まない点は異なるが構造上も信号
測定子と可能な限シ同一にすれば正確な1XkFsスペ
クトルを得ることができる。Therefore, although the light-receiving surfaces of the incident and signal X-ray intensity probes are made of the same material, and only the incident probe passes most of the incident light and only takes in a portion, the structure of the signal probe is also different. An accurate 1XkFs spectrum can be obtained by making it as similar as possible.

場合、波長に対して入射X線が一様だったとしても材料
の違いによる吸収端及び波長に対する吸収の程度の差を
生ずる。そのため、測定子の波長に対する感度特性が変
ってしまい信頼性のあるEXAFSスペクトルを得るこ
とができない。If the material or structure of the light-receiving surface of the probe to be reconsidered is different, even if the incident X-rays are uniform with respect to the wavelength, differences in the absorption edge and the degree of absorption with respect to the wavelength will occur due to the difference in the material. Therefore, the wavelength sensitivity characteristics of the probe change, making it impossible to obtain a reliable EXAFS spectrum.

At this time, the intensity of the transmitted X-rays and the above-mentioned current value are not necessarily in a proportional relationship. This is because the absorption structure of the metal plate 10, which is the measuring element, is included in the above current value. Therefore, the incident X
It is sufficient to use it as the line intensity measuring device 5 to remove the influence of wavelength sensitivity dependence due to the probe. However, since it is necessary to transmit most of the light, the light-receiving surface must have a mesh or a structure in which the center is hollowed out. As described above, according to the embodiment of the present invention, by dividing the output of the transmitted X-ray intensity measuring device 9 by the output of the incident X-ray intensity measuring device it5, it is possible to remove the wavelength sensitivity characteristic of the probe.
