Now I have an xray machine to play with at work, I can take photographs of the insides of things. I shall make full use of this. Here’s an old transistor to start with.
Image details : Mullard OC44 PNP Germanium transistor, glass envelope. 90kV polychromatic xrays, filtered with 1.5mm Al and 0.2 mm Cu. CsI scintillator, 6 sec exposure.
Awesome!
/me wants an x-ray machine!
My current source it way too dim for imaging within practical exposure times and is not a very good point source.
Alan, if you ever make it to London come drop by the lab. Bring stuff to xray. The system I’m building now should have 5um resolution.
