Zone-doubled Fresnel zone plates for high-resolution hard X-ray full-field transmission microscopy
Full-field transmission X-ray microscopy is a unique non-destructive technique for three-dimensional imaging of specimens at the nanometer scale. Here, the use of zone-doubled Fresnel zone plates to achieve a spatial resolution better than 20 nm in the hard X-ray regime (8-10 keV) is reported. By obtaining a tomographic reconstruction of a Ni/YSZ solid-oxide fuel cell, the feasibility of perfor...
متن کاملHigh-Aspect Ratio Nanofabrication for Hard X-Ray Zone Plates
Hard x-ray nanoimaging enables structural investigations of newmaterials for many applications. For high-resolution experiments, zone plate x-ray optics are commonly chosen. Two methods of zone plate nanofabrication are presented in this thesis. Zone plates are circular diffraction gratings with radially decreasing grating period. Their optical resolution depends on the width of the smallest zo...
متن کاملHard-X-ray Zone Plates: Recent Progress
The technology to focus hard-X-rays (photon energy larger than 1–2 keV) has made great progress in the past three years. The progress was particularly spectacular for lenses based on the Fresnel zone plate concept. The spatial resolution notably increased by a factor of three, opening up entirely new domains of application, specifically in biomedical research. As we shall see, this evolution is...
متن کاملHigh resolution hard x-ray spectroscopy of femtosecond laser-produced plasmas with a CZT detector
We present measurement of characteristic Ka emission from Mo, Ag, and La targets irradiated by a 60 fs, 600 mJ, 10 Hz Ti:sapphire laser pulse at 10– 10 W/cm. These x-ray emissions can potentially be used in applications from laser-based hard x-ray sources to x-ray mammography so detailed knowledge of the spectra is required to assess imaging of the figure of merit. We show here that high resolv...
متن کاملZone Plates for Hard X-Ray Free-Electron Lasers
Hard x-ray free-electron lasers are novel sources of coherent x-rays with unprecedented brightness and very short pulses. The radiation from these sources enables a wide range of new experiments that were not possible with previous x-ray sources. Many of these experiments require the possibility to focus the intense x-ray beam onto small samples. This Thesis investigates the possibility to use ...
