Characteristic X-rays of copper
Article No: P2540105
Spectra of X-rays from a copper anode are analyzed using different monocrystals and the results plotted graphically. The energies of the characteristic lines are then determined from the positions of the glancing angles for the various orders of diffraction. Experience the essence of the Nobel Prizes: Röntgen (1901), W.H. Bragg, W.L. Bragg, (1914) Application of Bragg's law Ganiometer with 2 independent or coupled (2:1) axis for sample and detector X-ray unit with newest technology to fulfill German safety regulations for student experiments Large unbreakable lead enforced acrylic glass windows according to DIN safety regulations Record the intensity of the X-rays emitted by the copper anode as a function of the Bragg angle using a LiF monocrystal as analyzer. Step 1 is to be repeated using the KBr monocrystal as analyzer. Calculate the energy values of the characteristic copper lines and compare them with the energy differences of the copper energy terms.
