Abstract
Several single crystal CVD diamonds with (001) and (111) surface orientations were studied using x-ray diffraction rocking curve mapping in the double-crystal pseudo plane-wave configuration using Bragg reflection geometry. Strongly nonuniform distributions of rocking curve parameters on the studied crystal surfaces were observed, which indicates that the crystals exhibit substantial lattice distortions. Selected crystal pairs were tested in the nondispersive double-crystal configuration using polychromatic bending magnet synchrotron radiation. The results suggest that CVD diamond crystals could be used as high-flux broadband x-ray monochromators in applications where preservation of the radiation wavefront is not a primary goal.
