Single-crystal sapphire microstructure for high-resolution synchrotron X-ray monochromators (original) (raw)

AI-generated Abstract
The utilization of modern synchrotron and free-electron laser X-ray sources demands high-performance X-ray optics. This study focuses on the synthesis and analysis of single-crystal sapphire for X-ray monochromators, addressing challenges such as heat-load management and precision focusing. High-order Bragg reflections enable ultra-narrow bandpass probe beams, vital for nuclear resonance scattering applications requiring exceptional energy resolution. The research reveals that single-crystalline corundum white sapphire is an effective alternative to silicon, with its superior structural properties and thermal resistance making it suitable for advanced X-ray optics applications.
