Abstract

Recent X-ray optical experiments have validated previous theoretical work on focusing by bent crystals in Laue geometry. It was shown that a suitable choice of the crystal thickness significantly improves the focusing performance of the crystal by combining the dynamical focusing of the Borrmann triangle with the geometrical focusing obtained by the crystal bending. The best focus size achieved during the experiments was less than 5 µm and is in practice limited by the source demagnification for the considered setup.
