Here, we extend our recently developed coded-mask wavefront sensing technique to enable single-shot measurements of nanofocused x-ray beams. This method accurately reconstructs the focal beam profile by backpropagating the wavefront measured downstream of the beam focus. To validate its performance, we benchmarked it against the conventional fluorescence wire scan method, successfully measuring ∼120 nm focal spots at the 28-ID-B beamline of the Advanced Photon Source using a polymeric compound refractive lens. The results highlight the effectiveness of coded-mask wavefront sensing for high-precision beam profiling and its application as a real-time wavefront monitoring tool.
