Abstract:
According to some aspects, a carrier configured for use with a broadband x-ray source comprising an electron source and a primary target arranged to receive electrons from the electron source to produce broadband x-ray radiation in response to electrons impinging on the primary target is provided. The carrier comprising a housing configured to be removably coupled to the broadband x-ray source and configured to accommodate a secondary target capable of producing monochromatic x-ray radiation in response to incident broadband x-ray radiation, the housing comprising a transmissive portion configured to allow broadband x-ray radiation to be transmitted to the secondary target when present, and a blocking portion configured to absorb broadband x-ray radiation.

Claim (Index 14):
A carrier configured for use with a broadband x-ray source comprising an electron source and a primary target arranged to receive electrons from the electron source to produce broadband x-ray radiation in response to electrons impinging on the primary target, the carrier comprising:\n a housing configured to be removably coupled to the broadband x-ray source and configured to accommodate a secondary target capable of producing monochromatic x-ray radiation in response to incident broadband x-ray radiation, the housing comprising:\n a transmissive portion configured to allow broadband x-ray radiation to be transmitted to the secondary target when present; and \n a blocking portion configured to absorb broadband x-ray radiation, \n wherein the housing is configured, when coupled to the broadband x-ray source and accommodating the secondary target, to position the secondary target so that at least some broadband x-ray radiation from the primary target impinges on the secondary target via the transmissive portion of the housing, and wherein the broadband x-ray source comprises a vacuum tube that houses the electron source and the primary target, the vacuum tube comprising an interface component having a transmissive window that allows at least some of the broadband x-ray radiation emitted by the primary target to be transmitted outside the vacuum tube, and wherein the housing is configured to be removably inserted into a receptacle formed at last in part by the interface component so that, when the housing is inserted into the receptacle and accommodating the second target, the secondary target is positioned to receive at least some broadband x-ray radiation from the primary target transmitted through the transmissive window of the interface component and the transmissive portion of the housing.
