BROADBAND SOFT X-RAY SPECTROMETER Russian patent published in 2013 - IPC G01N23/83 

FIELD: physics.

SUBSTANCE: broadband soft X-ray spectrometer has a sealed housing in which there are detection channels, each having, arranged in series on the direction of radiation, an entrance slit, a selective filter, a region bounded by two total external reflection (TER) mirrors and an X-ray detector, wherein the detection channels are arranged quasi-parallel, wherein the TER mirrors are merged into one bundle by a common housing; the entrance slit is common for the whole bundle, and the X-ray detector used is a photographic recorder or a CCD matrix.

EFFECT: high spectral selectivity of the device, easier operation of the spectrometer owing to interdependent adjustment of the detection channels of the spectrometer on the radiation source, and compactness of the device and reduced weight and size due to fewer fastening elements.
