Abstract

Diffractive-refractive optics are x-ray focusing monochromators based on the diffraction on profiled crystal surface. Diffraction on longitudinal parabolic groove machined in crystal surface forms a sagittaly focused synchrotron radiation beam. Such kind of monochromator may be realized as a crystal with parabolic hole, where the beam is diffracted on the inner wall of the hole. Two such asymmetrically cut crystals set into antiparallel position, creating a dispersive (+,-,-,+) arrangement, form a sagittaly focusing x-ray monochromator which should be practically aberration-free. The focusing properties of such kind of monochromator are discussed in detail and it is shown for the first time that it can be used not only for focusing but also for creating highly parallel monochromatic beam in the broad region of the Bragg angles. This device with parabolic hole has not been tested experimentally yet.
