A sagittal focusing monochromator which utilizes a bimetallic strip as its active focusing member has been designed and has undergone preliminary testing. The crystal bender is very easy to use as only setting the temperature of the bimetallic strip is necessary to adjust the focus. The mechanism utilizes bending rods mounted on live centers which prevent twisting of the crystal. A finite element analysis has been done on a new ribbed crystal which, based on the analysis, would have very small aberrations.
