The utility model relates to the technical field of X-
ray detection, and discloses a device for detecting trace
heavy metals in soil, plants and water, which comprises a shielding layer, a control sliding table module and an X-
ray total reflection
system are arranged in the shielding layer, a sample inlet, a cooling fan and a horizontal slide rail are arranged on the shielding layer, a sample table can be drawn out along the horizontal slide rail, and the X-
ray total reflection
system is arranged on the sample table. The X-ray total reflection
system comprises an X-ray tube, a
light guide and a
detector, and the height and angle of X-rays can be adjusted by controlling the sliding table module. According to the utility model, X-rays pass through the
light guide to form an incident angle with an extremely small angle, total reflection is generated on the surface of the sample table, so that
background noise generated on the sample table is greatly reduced, and meanwhile, the
silicon drift
detector is adopted, so that the detection capability is greatly improved, and a relatively good detection capability on trace or trace elements in soil is realized; and the
mass is light, the movement and the transportation are convenient, and greater portability is provided for testers.
