ABSTRACT:
Detecting unit comprises position-sensitive detector1and collimating system2, situated in front of its window19. Collimating system being made in the form of honeycomb structure comprising multitude of tubular channels for transmittance of diffracted X-ray radiation. Walls of adjacent tubular channels are fused together. Outlet ends of the channels, forming outlet end face22of the collimating system, are oriented towards window19of the position-sensitive detector. Outlets of the channels in outlet end face of the collimating system2are arranged in several rows along window19of the position-sensitive detector1. Walls of the tubular channels are formed from material absorbing X-ray radiation. Collimating system2is installed with possibility of adjusting its position relative to the window19alignment of the position-sensitive detector. The embodiment specified provides for prevention of the difractograms distortion and the increase of sensitivity of the detecting unit.
