Abstract

Equipment and technology for producing X-ray refractive lenses from polymethyl methacrylate are described. Each single lens has a spherical profile with a radius of 2.38 mm. A compound lens is composed of 235 single lenses. The focal length of the compound lens for 14-keV X-ray photons is 4.8 m. The lenses developed thereby have been tested on the synchrotron radiation source of the Scientific and Engineering Complex at the Kurchatov Centre of Synchrotron Radiation and Nanotechnologies. The advantages and the drawbacks of the parabolic and spherical lenses are discussed.
