Properties of polycapillary optics dedicated to low-energy parallel-beam wavelength-dispersive spectrometers for synchrotron-based X-ray fluorescence study

Résumé

The main advantage of wavelength-dispersive spectrometers applied in X-ray study is their high energy resolution. The design and construction of spectrometer, usually dedicated to the specific experimental systems, for example synchrotron based setups, need information about the characteristics of the main elements of the spectrometer such as X-ray optics elements, crystals and detectors. Such information can be obtained using Monte-Carlo simulations. In this paper, the Monte-Carlo simulations of X-ray tracing in parallel-beam wavelength-dispersive spectrometer (PBWDS), equipped with polycapillary optics, are presented and discussed. The study concentrates on the description of the polycapillary model, simulations of the properties of X-ray polycapillary optics and, finally, on the simulations of X-ray track in the spectrometer designed and installed at the ID21 beamline at the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility (ESRF, Grenoble, France). The results of simulations were compared with experimental data obtained for different registered X-ray energies and spectrometer crystals, showing good agreement. The obtained results showed that the X-ray transmission in the tested polycapillary optics is at the level of 15%, while the divergence of the outgoing beam changes from 8 mrad to 3 mrad with an increase of photon energy from 2 keV to 10 keV. The spectrometer provides an energy resolution of 5 eV and 33 eV in the energy range of 1.4 keV - 6.5 keV. The developed simulation program can be successfully used for the construction of spectrometers dedicated to the different experimental conditions.
