Detection X-ray fluorescence

Historically fluorescent screens and photographic film have long been the primary means of detecting x-rays. Fluorescent screens are made of a thin layer of zinc sulfide, containing a trace of nickel. Irradiated with an x-ray beam, this compound fluoresces and emits faint yellow light. A photographic film leaves a permanent record of exposure to x-rays and, when used in conjunction with a microdensitometer, it can provide a nearly quantitative measure of the relative intensities of different diffraction spots recorded on a single sheet of film.
