Abstract
The tabletop storage ring, 6 MeV MIRRORCLE, is dedicated to hard X-ray imaging as well as far-infrared (FIR) spectroscopy. In spite of low electron energy, the 6 MeV MIRRORCLE generates hard X-rays ranging from 10 keV up to its electron energy and milliwatt order sub-millimetre range FIR rays. Bremsstrahlung is the mechanism for the hard X-ray generation. Images produced with 11× geometrical magnification display a sharply enhanced edge effect when generated using a 25 mm rod electron target. Bright far-infrared is generated in the same way using a conventional synchrotron light source, but with MIRRORCLE the spectral flux is found to be ∼1000 times greater than that of a standard thermal source. Partially coherent enhancement is observed in the case of FIR output.
