Title: Theoretical considerations in the design of multilayer x-ray optics

Conference ·
OSTI ID:5408178

There is increasing interest in the application of multilayers to figured x-ray optics. Two concepts in design appraoch are presented. The requirements for image formation with a multilayer device are discussed. A geometrical approach is used. The possible affect of multilayers on image quality is studied. Models for the reflectivity of x rays by multilayers are compared briefly. 18 refs., 3 figs.
