Monday, July 26, 2010, 2:00 pm — Bldg. 703, Large Conference Room
The general mission of the ESRF Optics Group is to perform research and development of x-ray optical elements and systems. The group assists ESRF scientists in the conception of their beamline optics, and designs, fabricates, and tests optical elements. The group members operate a Crystal Laboratory, a Metrology clean room facility, a Multilayer Laboratory, and dedicated beamline instrumentation for rapid experimental access. In addition, they participate in development programmes on refractive lenses and on diamond crystals.
The Multilayer Team is in charge of the development and fabrication of multilayer coatings for x-ray optical applications. The Multilayer Facility has been operational for about 15 years. During this period, more than 100 multilayer based optical elements were delivered to ESRF beamlines, some of which representing the workhorse in the optics hutch. A few years ago a new deposition system was designed, installed, and commissioned. Since 2008 the new laboratory is operational and has produced its first optical elements for ESRF beamlines.
This talk will recall some fundamental properties of multilayer optics, discuss design and fabrication aspects, highlight the most prominent applications, and outline ongoing developments.
