Abstract

We present experimental evidence for achieving significant x-ray flux enhancement by coupling a highly collimated and monochromatic synchrotron x-ray beam into a Si/polyimide/${\mathrm{SiO}}_{2}$ thin-film waveguide. The observed 20-fold flux increase agrees with theoretical predictions and was limited only by absorption of the 1 \AA{} x rays in the waveguide structure.
