DETERMINATION OF ENHANCEMENT EFFECTS AT THE COMPTON TO COHERENT SCATTERING INTENSITIES X-RAYS USING FE-CU AND FE-ZN BINARY COMPOUNDS WITH WDXRF

Matrix enhancement effects have been examined with scattered X-rays by using WDXRF system for Fe-Cu and Fe-Zn binary compounds. Fe as analyte and elements which some of them the K absorption edge just below the characteristic K X-ray energies of the analit (Fe) as matrix have been chosen. Pure and binary with Fe ratio ranging from 10% to 90% samples were prepared with these elements. These samples have been analyzed in WDXRF system. At the end of measurement, the coherent and Compton scattering X-rays data of Rh Kα Xrays from these samples have been obtained. Matrix enhancement effects have been examined by calculating coherent / Compton scattered X-rays intensity ratio.
