Accurate modeling of periodic and graded multilayer x-ray scattering from surface microroughness characterization

Several hard X-ray imaging telescopes of the next future will be characterized by a high angular resolution. To this end, it is necessary to produce optics with a very low surface microroughness, as…

Analysis of microroughness evolution in x-ray astronomical multilayer mirrors by surface topography with the MPES program and by x-ray scattering

Future hard X-ray telescopes (e.g. SIMBOL-X and Constellation-X) will make use of hard X-ray optics with multilayer coatings, with angular resolutions comparable to the achieved ones in the soft…

Multilayer coatings for x-ray mirrors: extraction of stack parameters from x-ray reflectivity scans and comparison with transmission electron microscopy results

The reflectance effectiveness of a multilayer depends strongly on the stack properties thickness, roughness, and density of each layer and can be directly tested by means of x-ray reflectivity scans…

Nonspecular x-ray scattering in a multilayer-coated imaging system

We present a rigorous theoretical treatment of nonspecular x-ray scattering in a distributed imaging system consisting of multilayer-coated reflective optics. The scattering from each optical surface…

The Interpretation Of Glancing Incidence Scattering Measurements

The practical testing and specification of x-ray and UV mirrors requires a scattering theory to link topographic finish errors and functional performance. This paper examines various smooth-surface…

Design of grazing-incidence multilayer supermirrors for hard-x-ray reflectors.

Adaptations of neutron designs that take the effects of imperfect layer interfaces and absorption in the overlying layers into account are presented, and a thorough analysis of two specific applications shows that an improved performance can be obtained.
