    摘要: A specimen holder including a housing having a specimen chamber in it. A window defining a wall of the chamber allows transmission of at least a portion of the x-radiation from X-ray diffraction spectometry apparatus on which the holder is mounted, into the chamber. The housing has a passageway in it opening at one end into the specimen chamber and at the opposite end to outside the housing. A cylindrical specimen mount supports the specimen in the housing is constructed for sealing sliding reception in the passageway such that the specimen mount is rotatable about its longitudinal axis and movable lengthwise of the passageway while maintaining a seal with the passageway for positioning the specimen in the specimen chamber.
