Compact X-Ray And Extreme-Ultraviolet Monochromator

Monochromator for x-ray and extreme-ultraviolet radiation provides higher spectral resolution than achieved with thin-metal-foil broad-band-pass filters. Uses Bragg reflection to band-pass-filter radiation from high-intensity, broad-spectrum source. Operates over much broader x-ray and extreme-ultraviolet spectrum than devices based upon natural crystals. Intended to filter continuum radiation from sources like synchrotrons, laser plasma sources, free-electron lasers, and wigglers to produce monochromatic beams for testing and analysis of x-ray and extreme-ultraviolet telescopes and microscopes, for calibration of photographic films and detectors, for biological and biomedical research, for x-ray lithography, for processing of materials, and for research in properties of materials.

X-ray/EUV optics for astronomy and microscopy; Proceedings of the Meeting, San Diego, CA, Aug. 7-11, 1989

Topics included in these proceedings are on X-ray/EUV zone plates, filters, and windows; X-ray/EUV microscopes, telescopes, and monochromators; the design, characterization, and test of multilayer optics; the fabrication of X-ray/EUV multilayer optics; and the design, characterization, and test of grazing incidence X-ray optics. Other topics are on the fabrication of grazing incidence X-ray optics, X-ray/EUV space observatories and missions, the test and calibration of X-ray/EUV instruments, X-ray polarimetry, and X-ray/EUV spectroscopy and instruments. Papers are presented on 8-keV X-ray zone plates, a cylindrical X-ray multilayer monochromator, multilayer mirrors for 182 A, advanced flow polishing of exotic optical materials, and optical analysis of grazing incidence ring resonators for free-electron lasers. Attention is also given to X-ray mirrors for the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility, the XUV wide-field camera for Rosat, an optical test and alignment method for the XMM mirror module, Bragg crystal polarimeters, and a liftoff process for multilayer phase gratings.
