Abstract

See full text

An optical axis adjustment method for an X-ray analyzer. In a 2θ-adjustment step, a 0° position of the rotation of a receiving-side arm and a 0° position of the angle of diffraction 2θ are aligned. In a Zs-axis adjustment step, the position of an incident-side slit along a direction orthogonal to the centerline of the X-rays incident upon a sample from an X-ray source is adjusted. In a θ-adjustment step, the centerline of X-rays incident upon the sample from the X-ray source and the surface of the sample are adjusted so as to be parallel. In the 2θ-adjustment step, the Zs-axis adjustment step, and the θ-adjustment step, the capability for X-ray intensity positional resolution upon a straight line possessed by a one-dimensional X-ray detector is used to perform 2θ-adjustment, Zs-axis adjustment, and θ-adjustment.
