Abstract

A time resolved, 14 channel spectrometer with an absolutely calibrated response, was developed to cover an x-ray photon energy spectrum from 70 to 650 eV. The spectrometer utilized a combination of thin film prefilters, layered synthetic microstructure (LSM) diffractors, metal coated plastic scintillators, and photomultiplier detector tubes. Calibration of the spectrometer was done piecemeal for each component with standard techniques and the component calibrations were convolved to get a complete spectrometer response function. The complete assembled system was also calibrated at a synchrotron beamline. The two calibration procedures were compared.
