Re: FW: [XRF] 59.5keV spectrum cleanup

Actually there not much we can do for looking at the Am button as a sample. What the source filter is designed for is using the Am buttons as a source where we need to get rid of the Np interferences and how to optimize that.

What thickness¡¯s were you using? Try this filter on an Am source and a mid to low Z target sample with and without the filter.

Here's a better demonstration test.

An 1800sec scan was made using a single Am button, pointed directly at the Si-PIN detector

Next the filter stack (Al-Ti-CU) was placed between the source and the Si-PIN. This test was ran until the 59.5 peaks matched (1500s), as this is the area of interest.

There was dramatic effect on the Np- X-Rays.
Fault- did pick up Cu XRF from filter. Next time will reverse the order of the sheets in the stack, keeping copper more towards the source.
