TLDR
Developments of optics for coherent X-ray applications and their role in diffraction-limited storage rings are described.Abstract:
Developments of X-ray optics for full utilization of diffraction-limited storage rings (DLSRs) are presented. The expected performance of DLSRs is introduced using the design parameters of SPring-8 II. To develop optical elements applicable to manipulation of coherent X-rays, advanced technologies on precise processing and metrology were invented. With propagation-based coherent X-rays at the 1 km beamline of SPring-8, a beryllium window fabricated with the physical-vapour-deposition method was found to have ideal speckle-free properties. The elastic emission machining method was utilized for developing reflective mirrors without distortion of the wavefronts. The method was further applied to production of diffraction-limited focusing mirrors generating the smallest spot size in the sub-10 nm regime. To enable production of ultra-intense nanobeams at DLSRs, a low-vibration cooling system for a high-heat-load monochromator and advanced diagnostic systems to characterize X-ray beam properties precisely were developed. Finally, new experimental schemes for combinative nano-analysis and spectroscopy realised with novel X-ray optics are discussed.read more

X-ray monochromator with an energy resolution of 8×10−9 at 14.41 keV
Abstract: An ultrahigh-resolution x-ray crystal monochromator providing a 120 μeV bandwidth at 14.41 keV is presented. The design, which uses four independent silicon crystals and has an output beam parallel to the incident beam, may be generalized to arbitrary energies. Fluxes of 1.3×106 photons/s (1.0×107 photons/s) in bandwidths of 120±15 μeV (140±15 μeV) were measured. The performance of the monochromator, including the preservation of coherence through it, was verified by measurement of a 9.6±2.0% enhancement in the coincidence rate (i.e., γ(2)−1=0.096±0.020) in an intensity correlation experiment.
