Figure 3
The plot is split into two panels for clarity and shows the energy-dependent figure of merit for crystals profiled for different optimization energies (Eo). This plot shows how a 7 keV value for the optimization energy gives rise to a crystal that minimizes the figure of merit in the energy range 5–12 keV. The figure of merit is shown for profiled crystals with Eo values of 5 keV (filled up-triangles), 7 keV (filled squares), 9 keV (filled circles), 11 keV (filled diamonds) and 13 keV (filled down-triangles) and also for a rectangular crystal (hollow squares). |
