DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention is generated from a sample by thinly adhering the sample to a flat base plate and making excitation X-rays incident on the base plate at a small angle that causes total reflection. The present invention relates to the structure of an apparatus that detects fluorescent X-rays and analyzes the components of a sample according to the wavelength thereof.

In this device, thin X-rays are incident on the surface of the base plate at an extremely small angle of 0.01 to 0.1 degree, and fluorescent X-rays generated from the sample attached to the surface are detected by an X-ray detector opposite to the fluorescent X-rays. It is a thing. However, since the incident angle of X-rays is extremely small, even if the position of the surface of the base plate or the position of the excited X-ray beam fluctuates even in a direction perpendicular to this surface, the incident position of X-rays on the surface becomes remarkable. The fluorescent X-rays that fluctuate and are generated from the thin sample layer cannot accurately enter the central portion of the detector. That is, since the sensitivity of the detector has effectively changed, a large error occurs in the quantitative analysis. The present invention seeks to prevent such drawbacks in conventional devices.

In the present invention, an arbitrary sample is thinly coated on the surface of a base plate, thin X-rays for excitation are made incident on the surface at a minute incident angle, and an X-ray detector is opposed to the base plate. Reflected fluorescence X
In the line analyzer, the detector detects the fluorescent X-rays of the base plate, and at the same time, the base plate itself is moved in a direction perpendicular to the surface thereof, or a slit for forming a thin X-ray for excitation is formed. The X-ray beam for excitation is moved in a direction intersecting with it. FIG. 1 is a diagram for explaining the principle, and a sample to be analyzed is thinly deposited on the surface of the base plate 1 although not shown. When a thin X-ray 2 is made incident on this base plate at an extremely small angle α of 0.1 degrees or less, fluorescence having a wavelength determined by the material of the base plate is detected on the locus where the X-ray enters the inside of the base plate 1. X-rays are generated. Most of it is absorbed by the base plate, but part of it is emitted to the outside from the surface and detected by the X-ray detector. This detector has a sensitivity distribution in the direction parallel to the surface of the base plate 1 within the plane of the drawing, for example, as shown by the curve S (x). x is the distance in the direction parallel to the surface of the base plate 1 from the center of the detector 3 in the plane of the drawing. Since the X-ray intensity from the sample is extremely small, it is not necessary to consider the excitation by the primary X-ray penetrating the inside of the sample. Therefore, when the incident point p of the primary X-ray is at the center q of the detector, it becomes a maximum. Becomes As described above, the intensity of the fluorescent X-rays from the base plate 1 detected by the detector 3 is such that the primary X-rays enter the inside of the base plate 1 to generate fluorescent X-rays on its locus. The X-rays are absorbed by the material of the base plate, but are emitted from the surface and the detector 3
Detected in. Therefore, it is determined by the product of the intensity I (x ') of the fluorescent X-rays generated inside the base plate 1 and emitted from the surface of the base plate and the sensitivity S (x) of the detector. x'is the distance taken in the direction parallel to the surface of the base plate 1 from the point p at which the primary X-rays are incident on the surface of the base plate on the surface of the base plate. According to the formula, the intensity Ib (x 0 ) of the fluorescent X-ray from the material of the base plate 1 detected by the detector 3 is Becomes Ib (x 0 ) is a function of x 0 , which is the maximum
x 0 , which is x 0, depends on the form of the function of I (x−x 0 ).

That is, it is a value determined by the absorption coefficient of the primary X-ray by the base plate, the fluorescent X-ray absorption coefficient from the material of the base plate, and the density of the base plate material. It is not easy to theoretically calculate such a value because the absorption coefficient changes for each energy of the primary X-rays, but it is possible to obtain it.

From the above viewpoint, the fluorescent X-ray intensity becomes maximum when the sample is not adhered to the base plate by experiment (x 0 ).
b, and then the fluorescent X-ray intensity from the sample coated with a sample that can be sufficiently detected experimentally becomes the maximum (x 0 ) S
After obtaining the difference and obtaining the difference between them, the value dz 0 in the z direction necessary for changing this value is calculated in advance, and the base plate is moved in the z direction when measuring an unknown sample. ,
By finding the position where the fluorescent X-ray intensity from the material of the base plate 1 becomes maximum and setting the surface of the base plate at a position further displaced by dZ 0 from this, or by moving the slit 5. , Finding the point where the fluorescent X-ray intensity from the material of the base 1 becomes maximum and further moving the slit 5 by a value corresponding to dZ 0 , so that both x and z of the incident point p become 0. The origin q can be matched. In this state, the fluorescent X-ray of the sample adhered to the surface of the base plate 1 is detected by the detector 3 with the maximum and constant sensitivity.
Therefore, the device of the present invention has the effect of always performing accurate and highly sensitive quantitative analysis.
