Title: One-dimensional hard x-ray field retrieval using a moveable structure

Journal Article · · Optics Express
DOI:https://doi.org/10.1364/OE.18.018374· OSTI ID:1041499

We present a technique that allows measuring the field of an x-ray line focus using far-field intensity measurements only. One-dimensional phase retrieval with transverse translation diversity is used to recover a hard x-ray beam focused by a compound kinoform lens. The reconstruction is found to be in good agreement with independent knife-edge scan measurements taken at separated planes. The approach avoids the need for measuring the beam profile at focus and allows narrower beams to be measured than the traditional knife-edge scan.
