Title: Nanofocusing with aberration-corrected rotationally parabolic refractive X-ray lenses

Abstract

Wavefront errors of rotationally parabolic refractive X-ray lenses made of beryllium (Be CRLs) have been recovered for various lens sets and X-ray beam configurations. Due to manufacturing via an embossing process, aberrations of individual lenses within the investigated ensemble are very similar. By deriving a mean single-lens deformation for the ensemble, aberrations of any arbitrary lens stack can be predicted from the ensemble with σ¯ = 0.034λ. Using these findings the expected focusing performance of current Be CRLs are modeled for relevant X-ray energies and bandwidths and it is shown that a correction of aberrations can be realised without prior lens characterization but simply based on the derived lens deformation. As a result, the performance of aberration-corrected Be CRLs is discussed and the applicability of aberration-correction demonstrated over wide X-ray energy ranges.

Figure 1 Figure 1: The coherent X-ray beam was focused by a set of N Be CRLs onto a Siemens star sample (1 mm-thick tungsten on a diamond membrane). The sample was scanned in a grid fashion in the x and y direction. We collected a diffraction pattern for every scan pointmore » in order to reconstruct the complex-valued probe function via ptychography.
