Abstract

See full text

An attenuation zone plate for coded-aperture imaging of a radiation source has mercury contained within a wedge-shaped chamber in a plastic housing. Reservoir and relief cavities facilitate filling the housing with mercury and accommodate changes in mercury volume. Lead plates positioned on the perimeter of the housing provide a field of view mask. In one embodiment, the housing cover pivots to vary the wedge angle. Advantages include greater facility in precision manufacturing and greater attenuation pattern flexibility.
