Notes:
A complementary pair of rapid methods for the energy calibration of solid-state detectors have been developed. Each method requires only a single measurement from either (i) a glass sample containing elements chosen to produce fluorescence lines over a suitable energy range when exposed to a polychromatic beam of X-rays, or (ii) a powder diffraction standard in the presence of diffraction slits. The fluorescent glass method has the advantage of allowing simultaneous energy calibration of a number of detectors without requiring diffraction slits. There is the potential for the glass material to be incorporated into virtually any sample holder to allow a continuous in situ calibration. Complementary observations of a powder diffraction standard allow simultaneous calibration of diffraction 2θ and monitoring of the detector for drift.
