A new crystal‐type x‐ray spectrometer is described, which employs a position‐sensitive detector for simultaneous radiation detection in a certain energy range given by the spectrometer design. The main specifications are (a) better energy resolution and (b) longer data collection times compared with an energy‐dispersive spectrometer.
