Historical Background
The British physicist and chemist Henry Moseley rst
used X-ray uorescence to make sense of the periodic
table of elements in 1913. By shooting X-rays at certain compounds he observed a unique spectra lines
of the withdrawing X-rays for each compound. Later
on, he laid the foundation for identifying elements in
X-ray spectroscopy by establishing a relationship between energy and the atomic number, which became
the basis of X-ray spectrometry.[5]
