The Structural Design Method of Multi-Layer Parabolic Reflective Surface for X-Ray Focusing

Abstract:

As an ultra-short electromagnetic waves, X-ray has a strong ability to penetrate with high-energy. The method for focusing visible spectral bands is not suitable for X-ray spectrum. At present, in X-ray astronomy, the X-ray focus mode which uses grazing incidence less than critical angle has been widely used. However, the small critical angle limits its effective aperture of the X-ray collection. This paper presents a multi-layer reflective structure working with grazing incidence and the surfaces coated multilayer high reflective for X-ray. It can guarantee the large effective entrance pupil and high energy collection. The 200mm diameter X-ray focusing device is designed as an example. It is found from simulation that a good focusing result is acquired.
