ABSTRACT:
A monochromator in an X-ray analysis apparatus involves a crystal having spherically curved crystal lattice surfaces with the boundary surface of the crystal having a radius of curvature R in a first principal direction and a radius of curvature 2R in a second principal direction. The second principal direction is transverse with respect to the first principal direction. A high radiation efficiency is obtained by constructing an entrance slit and an exit slit for X-rays to conform to curved circles of latitude on a Rowland sphere applicable to the monochromator crystal.
