摘要
Silicon nitride and beryllium thin film membranes are often used in X-ray windows for elemental analysis systems. A determination of the shock that theses membranes can sustain without breaking is valuable for these applications. In this study thin film membranes of both materials were subjected to shocks produced by a pendulum shock test apparatus. The silicon nitride windows were found to catastrophically fail at an acceleration of 8,145.62 g or less while the beryllium windows were subjected to accelerations as high as 30,516.41 g without failing.
