Tunable multilayer EUV/soft x-ray polarimeter
A tunable polarimeter using multilayer interference coatings as both reflection polarizer and transmission phase retarder is described. The portable device bolts onto existing chambers and its rotation axis is precisely aligned to the beam. The upstream transmission phase retarder is tunable by varying its incidence angle, and the downstream polarizer is tunable by translating a laterally grade...
متن کاملSurface Slope Metrology on Deformable Soft X-ray Mirrors
We report on the current state of surface slope metrology on deformable mirrors for soft x-rays at the Advanced Light Source (ALS). While we are developing techniques for in situ at-wavelength tuning, we are refining methods of ex situ visible-light optical metrology to achieve sub-100-nrad accuracy. This paper reports on laboratory studies, measurements and tuning of a deformable test-KB mirro...
متن کاملSurface finish requirements for soft x-ray mirrors.
We have examined the correlations between direct surface-finish metrology techniques and normalincidence, soft x-ray reflectance measurements of highly polished x-ray multilayer mirrors. We find that, to maintain high reflectance, the rms surface roughness of these mirrors must be less than ~ 1 Å over the range of spatial frequencies extending approximately from 1 to 100 µm(-1)1 (i.e., spatial ...
متن کاملA W: B4C multilayer phase retarder for broadband polarization analysis of soft x-ray radiation.
A W: B4C multilayer phase retarder has been designed and characterized which shows a nearly constant phase retardance between 640 and 850 eV photon energies when operated near the Bragg condition. This freestanding transmission multilayer was used successfully to determine, for the first time, the full polarization vector at soft x-ray energies above 600 eV, which was not possible before due to...
متن کاملCompact scanning soft-x-ray microscope using a laser-produced plasma source and normal-incidence multilayer mirrors.
We have constructed a scanning soft-x-ray microscope that uses a laser-produced plasma as the soft-x-ray source and normal-incidence multilayer-coated mirrors in a Schwarzschild configuration as the focusing optics. The microscope operates at a wavelength of 14 nm, has a spatial resolution of 0.5 microm, and has a soft-x-ray photon flux through the focus of 10(4)-10(5) sec(-1) when operated wit...
