Quantitative comparisons between obtained X‐ray emission spectra of 3d‐transition metal elements and their alloys as well as band structure calculations demand an energetic resolution of the order of E ≈ 1 eV. A highly resolving focussing X‐ray spectrometer is described which allows very high quality X‐ray emission spectra to be obtained. The spectrometer utilizes a spherically bent Si(111)‐crystal operated on the Rowland circle. The selection, fabrication and testing of the crystal are described. A comparison between own measurements of line‐width of Co‐Kα 1,2 ‐ and Cu‐Kα 1,2 ‐emission lines as well as literature values is given. The required energetic resolution can be obtained in the upper range of the Bragg angle δ with the described X‐ray spectrometer and a spherically bent crystal.
