  • X-ray beam shaping apparatus and method
    Patent number: 12007343
    Abstract: A beam shaping apparatus (10) for use in an X-ray analysis device (40). The beam shaping apparatus processes an input beam (32) from an X-ray beam source (20), and generates an output beam (34) with an output beam shape for irradiating a sample (112) held by a sample holder (22) of the X-ray analysis device. Movement of the output beam shape is controlled in dependence upon a varying tilt angle (?) of the sample (112), this defined by a tilt position of the sample holder (22).
    Type: Grant

  • X-Ray beam shaping apparatus and method
    Publication number: 20220163466
    Abstract: A beam shaping apparatus (10) for use in an X-ray analysis device (40). The beam shaping apparatus processes an input N beam (32) from an X-ray beam source (20), and generates an output beam (34) with an output beam shape for irradiating a sample (112) held by a sample holder (22) of the X-ray analysis device. Movement of the output beam shape is controlled in dependence upon a varying tilt angle (?) of the sample (112), this defined by a tilt position of the sample holder (22).
