Duration: 16.11.2012 – 15.11.2016
Úprava rtg lúča a rtg zobrazovanie
X-ray beam conditioning and imaging
Program: COST
Project leader: RNDr. Korytár Dušan, CSc.
Annotation: The project is aimed at research and development of laboratory short wavelength sources (wavelength of 0.01-100 nm) to increase the access of european laboratories to the techniques so far accessible at large scale facilities (synchrotrons). The project objectives:1. To increase the output flux at least by one order of magnitude compared to the available sources, to decrease the divergence, to increase repetition rate and to decrease source size below 1µm. 2. Project will be focused at methods of generation of ultra short X-ray pulses in laboratory conditions. 3. Improvement and development of new compact sources, e.g. based on carbon nanotubes and of portable systems with optics and detectors important for environment and cultural heritage.4. High fluxes will require better detectors and optics.5. Included will be modeling as driving mechanism for experiment and of methods of comparison of sources at varying parameters.

Vysokovýkonná zakrivená röntgenová optika pripravená pokročilou technológiou nanoobrábania
High-performance curved X-ray optics prepared by advanced nanomachining technology
Program: VEGA
Project leader: Ing. Zápražný Zdenko, PhD.
Annotation: The project is focused on the research and development of new types of X-ray optics with highly accurate curvedactive surfaces. The surfaces will be prepared by an innovative nanomachining technology. We will investigatethe application of nanomachining technology to a special case of X-ray optics with curved surfaces, which is aparabolic refractive lens operating in the transmission geometry. The second special case we will focus on will bethin crystal monochromators with different thicknesses in a range of 20-2000 micrometers. Such elements can beused for example as beam splitters in modern X-ray free-electron lasers (XFEL), bent crystals in Johanssonmonochromators for spectroscopic applications, or they can also be used in particle accelerators for beamsteering. The developed elements of curved X-ray optics will be tested in real X-ray metrology and X-ray imagingexperiments using laboratory or synchrotron X-ray sources and highly sensitive directly converting X-raydetectors Pilatus and Medipix.
