Future Metrology Needs for Synchrotron Radiation Mirrors
نویسندگان
چکیده
An international workshop on metrology for X-ray and neutron optics, the first of its kind, was held March 16-17, 2000, at the Advanced Photon Source at Argonne National Laboratory. Engineers and scientists from around the world met to evaluate current metrology instrumentation and methods used to characterize the surface figure and finish of long, grazing-incidence optics used in synchrotron radiation beamlines, and to consider future needs for synchrotron, FEL, and neutron sources.

Two-dimensional in situ metrology of X-ray mirrors using the speckle scanning technique
In situ metrology overcomes many of the limitations of existing metrology techniques and is capable of exceeding the performance of present-day optics. A novel technique for precisely characterizing an X-ray bimorph mirror and deducing its two-dimensional (2D) slope error map is presented. This technique has also been used to perform fast optimization of a bimorph mirror using the derived 2D pi...
متن کاملDevelopment of a speckle-based portable device for in situ metrology of synchrotron X-ray mirrors
A portable device for in situ metrology of synchrotron X-ray mirrors based on the near-field speckle scanning technique has been developed. Ultra-high angular sensitivity is achieved by scanning a piece of abrasive paper or filter membrane in the X-ray beam. In addition to the compact setup and ease of implementation, a user-friendly graphical user interface has been developed to ensure that op...
متن کاملDABAM: an open-source database of X-ray mirrors metrology
An open-source database containing metrology data for X-ray mirrors is presented. It makes available metrology data (mirror heights and slopes profiles) that can be used with simulation tools for calculating the effects of optical surface errors in the performances of an optical instrument, such as a synchrotron beamline. A typical case is the degradation of the intensity profile at the focal p...
متن کاملEfficient high-order suppression system for a metrology beamline
High-quality metrology with synchrotron radiation requires in particular a very high spectral purity of the incident beam. This is usually achieved by a set of transmission filters with suitable absorption edges to suppress high-order radiation of the monochromator. The at-wavelength metrology station at a BESSY-II bending-magnet collimated plane-grating monochromator (c-PGM) beamline has recen...
متن کاملAt-wavelength metrology of x-ray optics at Diamond Light Source
Modern, third-generation synchrotron radiation sources provide coherent and extremely bright beams of X-ray radiation. The successful exploitation of such beams depends to a significant extent on imperfections and misalignment of the optics employed on the beamlines. This issue becomes even more critical with the increasing use of active optics, and the desire to achieve diffraction-limited and...
