Abstract

X-ray multilayer supermirrors for the energy range up to 20 keV have been theoretically studied and experimentally measured with synchrotron radiation. A multilayer mirror with 50 W/Si bilayers with different thicknesses on the Si substrate has a smooth reflectivity of up to 32% in the whole energy range from 5 to 22 keV at a grazing incidence angle of 0.32{degree} which is considerably larger than using total external reflection. {copyright} {ital 1995} {ital American} {ital Institute} {ital of} {ital Physics}.

X-ray supermirrors for BESSY-II

Conference Erko, A ; Schaefers, F ; Vidal, B ; ...

X-ray multilayer supermirrors for the energy range up to 22 KeV have been theoretically studied and experimentally measured with synchrotron radiation. A multilayer mirror with 50 W/Si bi-layers of different thicknesses on a Si substrate has a smooth reflectivity of up to 32% in the whole energy range from 5 KeV to 22 KeV at a grazing incidence angle of 0.32{degree}.
Optimization of multilayer reflectivity and bandpass for soft to hard x-ray applications [0.1{endash}200 keV]

Journal Article Vestli, K ; Ziegler, E ; Norwegian University of Science and Technology, Institutt For Fysikk, N 7034 Trondheim - Review of Scientific Instruments

In the last decades, the major motivation for manufacturing multilayer mirrors has been in soft x-ray applications, particularly for astronomy, microlithography, and polarimetry. The advent of high energy synchrotron storage rings has provided a new significant impetus emphasizing high energy applications and especially when flux, rather than resolution, is desired. In this paper we present the reflection properties of the most promising multilayer material combinations for the energy range from 0.1 keV up to 200 keV. Previous calculations by Rosenbluth were limited to a maximum of 2 keV and to multilayers composed of pure elements and operating under normal incidence.more »« less

Growth, structure, and performance of depth-graded W/Si multilayers for hard x-ray optics

Journal Article Windt, D L ; Christensen, F E ; Craig, W W ; ... - Journal of Applied Physics

We describe the development of depth-graded W/Si multilayer films prepared by magnetron sputtering for use as broad-band reflective coatings for hard x-ray optics. We have used specular and nonspecular x-ray reflectance analysis to characterize the interface imperfections in both periodic and depth-graded W/Si multilayer structures, and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and selected area electron diffraction (SAED) to characterize the interface structure and layer morphology as a function of depth in an optimized depth-graded multilayer. >From x-ray analysis we find interface widths in the range {sigma}=0.275-0.35 nm for films deposited at low argon pressure (with a slight increase in interfacemore »« less

Fe-W supermirrors for polarizing neutrons

Conference Majkrzak, C F ; Neumann, D A ; Copley, J R.D. ; ...

Polarized neutrons play an important role in scattering studies of condensed matter. Consequently, an efficient means of polarizing a neutron beam is very valuable. In addition to conventional, bulk single-crystal polarizers such as the Heusler alloy Cu{sub 2}MnAl, polarizing mirrors are often used for this purpose. Thin film bilayers of ferromagnetic Fe and nonmagnetic W have been deposited by sputtering on flat glass substreates according to a sequence of gradually varying bilayer thicknesses which in effect extends the critical angle for external mirror reflection for neutrons of one spin state when the Fe is magnetized in the plane of themore »« less

Neutron reflecting supermirror structure

Patent Wood, James L

An improved neutron reflecting supermirror structure comprising a plurality of stacked sets of bilayers of neutron reflecting materials. The improved neutron reflecting supermirror structure is adapted to provide extremely good performance at high incidence angles, i.e. up to four time the critical angle of standard neutron mirror structures. The reflection of neutrons striking the supermirror structure at a high critical angle provides enhanced neutron throughput, and hence more efficient and economical use of neutron sources. One layer of each set of bilayers consist of titanium, and the second layer of each set of bilayers consist of an alloy of nickelmore »« less
