TLDR
In this article, a detector window for an analyzer, particularly an X-ray analyzer and a method for manufacturing the same is described. But the detector window is not shown to be permeable to soft X-rays when the window is at least on one surface in contact with pressure essentially equal to that of a vacuum.
Abstract
The invention relates to a detector window for an analyzer, particularly an X-ray analyzer, and to a method for manufacturing the same. The detector window is permeable to soft X-rays when the window is at least on one surface in contact with a pressure essentially equal to that of a vacuum. The detector window of the invention is a thin film, with the thickness of 0.5 μm, and is manufactured by means of photolitography.

Radiation detector window structure and method of manufacturing thereof

TL;DR: A radiation detector window structure for use with a radiation detection system includes a frame, a plurality of upstanding spaced-apart ribs held in place by the frame, and a thin film of material disposed on the tops of the ribs to span over the gaps there between for passing the radiation to be detected and for filtering at least some of the unwanted radiation.
