The X-ray fluorescence (XRF) analysis with using synchrotron radiation (SR) is a powerful technique for resolving elemental composition of the different samples with high sensitivity. This technique is suitable for nondestructive multi-elemental analyses of heavy elements such as rare-earth elements. In this paper, the choice of optimal excitation energies for the determination of the trace amounts of the different rare-earth elements (REEs) from La to Lu by the SRXRF method was discussed. The SRXRF spectra have received at the synchrotron radiation (SR) station using radiation from the 9-pole wiggler on VEPP-4M at the Siberian Synchrotron and Terahertz Radiation Center (SSTRC). As samples the Russian and international standards of magmatic rocks (AGV-1, BCR-1, DNC-1, BIR-1, SGD-1A, and G-2) were used. This powerful technique should be useful for nondestructive analyses of rare-earth and heavy elements in geological, geochemical and archaeological samples as well as industrial materials. |
