Summary
A diamond optic that can both dissipate the heat load while reducing phase profile errors of the beam will allow a more full realization of the benefits of the previous investments in light sources by allowing experiments that depend on high resolution imaging or spacial resolution. Reducing the x-ray spot size on samples will improve the quality of this information leading to better understanding of materials properties. During Phase I, we explored techniques for characterizing and improving the accuracy of the shape of diamond lenses, particularly in the apex of the parabolic curve, in order to make an optic whose optical performance exceeds what is currently available. We made efforts to reduce the lens surface roughness through a variety of dry etching methods. Additional work sought to make compound lenses with shorter focal lengths and to mount the lenses on copper supports by a variety of methods. Lastly, lenses were made and tested on the 1-BM beamline at APS.
