Abstract

X-ray focusing optics regardless of the technology requires extremely high precision of manufacturing, metrology and operational stability- As the x-ray beam is being transported to the experimental area distortions due to misalignments, imperfection of optics, etc- add up and result in beam quality degradation: broadening, appearance of tails and aberrations- Recently it became possible, using ptychography methods to quantify cumulative beam phase distortion- Based on this measurement a single piece of refractive optics, a phase correction plate can be designed to correct for this cumulative beam degradation- Euclid Techlabs LLC proposes to use femtosecond laser ablation to produce such phase correctors rapidly and at low cost- Such “disposable” optics can be designed on the fly and promptly manufactured for a specific beamline configuration and x-ray energy-
