A Laue/bent-Laue two crystal monochromator has been developed for producing a monochromatic x-ray fan beam with energy tunable over a wide range by adjusting the angle of only the first flat Laue crystal. Bending the second crystal increases the reflection bandwidth, making the monochromator very stable against vibrations. The monochromator was tuned to above and below the K edge energy of indium at the X12A beam line at the National Synchrotron Light Source for dual energy subtraction imaging.
