Local crystal structure, crystal orientation, and crystal deformation can all be probed by Laue
diffraction using a submicron x-ray beam. This technique, employed at a synchrotron facility …

The effect of hydrogen on the mechanical behavior of a metastable bcc β-titanium alloy
(Beta-C) has been investigated. By keeping the microstructure constant as the hydrogen …

Optimizing the lens design and improving the technological process, we manufactured X-ray
planar compound refractive lenses with vertical sidewalls up to 70 microns deep. The lens …

Refraction through curved surfaces, reflection from curved mirrors in grazing incidence, and
diffraction from Fresnel zone plates are key hard x-ray focusing mechanisms. In this article …

Sets of planar SU-8 cross lenses focusing in two directions have been fabricated by tilted
deep X-ray lithography using an X-ray mask with tilted absorber structures. The profile of the …

We introduce the concept of a miniaturized compound refractive X-ray zoom lens consisting
of SU-8 lenses fabricated by deep X-ray lithography. The focal length can be varied by …

Wavefront errors of rotationally parabolic refractive X-ray lenses made of beryllium (Be
CRLs) have been recovered for various lens sets and X-ray beam configurations. Due to …

The current advances in new generation X-ray sources are calling for the development and
improvement of high-performance optics. Techniques for high-sensitivity phase sensing and …

We report the results on experimental study of optical properties of Ni refractive lenses made
by deep X-ray lithography and LIGA techniques. One-and two-dimensional lenses were …

A Fresnel-like X-ray lens can be constructed by a triangular array of identical prisms whose
base corresponds to the 2\pi-shift length. Each column of prisms is progressively shifted from …
