Mechanical Engineering

To obtain monochromatic x-rays from copper one must avoid oreliminate the Kβ to obtain only Kα. One possible method is to usean electron energy above the Kα critical value of ~8.0 keV, butbelow the Kβ critical value of ~8.9 keV. Instead a potential energyof 40-50 keV is typically used, with a filter to remove the Kβ.Explain why this might be better than the first method.
