Focused X-ray Beams
W.C. Roentgen : Refractive index of all materials ≈ unity
Difficult to make an x-ray lens.
With the recent availability of extremely bright x-ray sources
(synchrotron storage rings, x-ray free electron lasers, …),
R&D efforts towards focusing x-rays to smaller and smaller
size have become intense.
At present it is possible to generate focused x-ray beam of
<30 nm, using the reflection, diffraction and refraction
phenomena in the x-ray region.
Optics for X-ray (~10 keV)
 Complex refractive index: n=1-δ+iβ
 Refraction is small: Re(n)=1-δ with δ=10-6 ….10-5
 Focal length: f=R/2 (n-1) = R/2δ
 Absorption is high: absorption lengths 1μm … 10μm
 Figure of merit: β/δ = 10-5 (Li,Be) …10-3 (C,Al,Si) …10-1
(Au,Pt,W)
Dilemma
 smaller f
smaller R
 more flux
larger aperture
larger R
Why focus x-ray to sub micron size?
 X-ray microscopy: Most materials are heterogeneous at
length scale of micron to nm (transmission microscopy,
scanning microscopy…).
 Increased flux: Higher sensitivity due to reduced
background.
 Small samples or samples in different environment
(pressure, temperature, magnetic field …)

Numerical Aperture
• Measure of light collection power
NA= n Sin θmax
NA ~ 0.5 (D/f)
NA is very closely related to performance of the
optics (e.g. depth of focus, diffraction limited
resolution, flux etc.). Low NA is one of the
major constraint for x-ray optics.
For high photon flux at the focus:
High brightness and large numerical
aperture
 Focusing increases the angular spread.
 Brightness: B= P/ (ΔAs . ΔΩs)
P : radiated power; ΔAs :source area ;
ΔΩs : source divergence
The photon flux at the focus is ~ B. 2 . NA2. η
 is spot size and η is the efficiency of the optics.
Thus the high photon flux at the focus requires
high source brightness and large numerical
aperture optics.

What is Synchrotron Radiation?
Synchrotron radiation is emitted from an electron
traveling at almost the speed of light (0.99999999C) and
its path is bent by a magnetic field. It was first observed
in a synchrotron in 1947. Thus the name
"synchrotron radiation".
Generation of Synchrotron Radiation
Synchrotron radiation is emitted at a bending magnet
or at an insertion device. Corresponding to the weak
and strong magnetic field, there are two types of
insertion devices: an undulator and a wiggler.
General Properties of
Synchrotron Radiation
 Ultra-bright
 Highly directional
 Spectrally continuous (Bending Magnet /Wiggler)
or quasi-monochromatic (Undulator)
 Linearly or circularly polarized
 Pulsed with controlled intervals
 Temporally and spatially stable

Road Ahead….
• A modest start has been done at RRCAT with the
availability of synchrotron radiation sources Indus1 and Indus-2. These sources are being operated on
a round the clock basis, week after week.
• Few x-ray beamlines have become operational, with
many more in implementation stage.
• These are national science facilities. Users from
various fields are welcome to plan research using
these facilities, which will significantly help us to
improve the performance further. It will be our
endeavor to support all users of this national
facility.
