Abstract
The diffraction properties of perfect single crystals match the properties of X-ray beams emitted by high energy storage rings in many cases. However, under certain circumstances imperfect crystals are better adapted to the experimental requirements and should therefore be considered as devices for beam definition. In particular progress has recently been made in the development of low mosaic spread beryllium and silicon single crystals. The results of calculations given in the present paper show that up to two orders of magnitude can be gained in flux on the sample when perfect crystals are replaced by mosaic crystals.
