Source Characteristics & Sample RequirementsTwo Sides of the Same Coin?
source (beam) characteristics:• size (x, y)• angular divergence (x’, y’)• energy content• time domain• polarization• coherence• stability
sample (beam) requirements:• focus size (x, y)• angular convergence (x’, y’)• energy content• time domain• polarization• coherence• stability
The job of x-ray optics is to transform the source beam characteristics to provide the best possible match to the sample requirements.

Source Figures of Merit?
Does it make any sense to discuss source figures of merit without considering sample acceptance and impact of optics?
Question – Is an 0.008nm*rad emittance source 10x better than an 0.08nm*rad source if the sample acceptance is 1nm*rad?
Question – Is extraordinary brightness obtained through ultra small vertical coupling relevant if the optics can’t preserve the vertical emittance?
Conclusion - The operative performance figure of merit is technique and sample specific and must include optics transmission function effects.
Corollary - There is no one size fits all performance figure of merit.

X-ray Optics – Design Ingredients
Beam line optics design on storage ring sources involves several major ingredients/challenges:
• power management• emittance/coherence preservation• beam stability • optics tailored to manipulate beam properties to the needs of
the individual scientific program
The last of these ingredients often involves “boutique” optics (e.g., micro-focus optics, ultra-small bandpass monos, etc.) operating in concert with more generic optical elements.
It is difficult to address the plethora of boutique optics in this format, so for the remainder of the talk let’s focus on the first three challenges and opportunities for associated optics improvements.

PEP-X BL Example
Consider a PEP-X (gedanken) beam line as a vehicle for discussing BL optics, power management, emittance preservation, and stability.
• 150 period undulator on 4.5GeV/1.5A/140pmrad/8pmrad ring• 75kW radiated power with 1MW/mrad2 peak power density
Primary job of optics upstream of the monochromator is to limit power incident on the mono to a manageable level. Tools available include:
• apertures - power management can lead to expensive designs• high pass filters (e.g., graphite, Be, etc.) – can introduce
structure in beam and may not survive power loading• low pass filters (e.g., mirrors) – grazing incidence so thermal
performance generally ok but can introduce beam structure and instability (more on this shortly)

PEP-X BL ExamplePre-Mono Power Management
• Absorb >98% on appropriately sized aperture(s)• Introduce horizontally deflecting mirror with fixed energy cutoff
to reject additional 2x power.

500W power transmitted by 30urad x 30urad pinhole and 24keV cutoff mirror exceeds acceptable mono power loading without significant emittance degradation.
Replace fixed aperture and cut off mirror with 3σx’ by 3σy’ variable aperture and anti-parallel pair of mirrors allowing for variable cut off and more effective power filtering.

Can we improve LN-cooled Si mono performance?
As noted by Zhang, et al (J. Synch. Rad. 10, p313, 2003) operating the mono closer to the zero of Si thermal expansion provides better thermal performance.

Mono Performance Enhancement Strategies
Cryogenically-cooled Si monochromators:• LN-cooling with servo loop feedback on crystal surface
temperature … LN pressure ~20bar to avoid boiling at wet wall in example shown
• employ alternative cryogen such as Ar (87K at 1bar), methane (!, 111K at 1bar), Kr ($, 120K at 1bar)
• utilize crystal geometry (e.g., thin crystal with carefully modeled heat sink to LN) to reduce thermal strain in diffraction volume
Employ alternative materials such as diamond, etc

Mirror Degradation of Beam Emittance
Let’s return to the filter mirror(s) and consider their impact on the beam emittance/coherence…
What specifications will vendors bid (and deliver!) today? Experience with ion beam milling/profiling has moved vendor comfort zone for mirror specification at least 2x in the past few years. Based on recent LCLS/LUSI experience, vendors with ion beam milling technology are willing to bid a specification with 0.25µrad rms slope error and 1nm rms height deviation (i.e., shorter wavelength deviations from ideal figure).
• For the example used earlier, two anti-parallel mirrors with uncorrelated 0.25µrad rms figure errors would degrade the 0.14nmrad horizontal emittance about 2x.
• 1nm rms short wavelength height deviations creates wavefrontvariations of ~0.08λ rms (λ=0.1nm, 2.7mrad mirror angle) which results in ~20% intensity loss at focus.
Metrology needs to keep pace with polish technology to ensure continued improvement. For example, V. Yaschuk (LBNL) is presently organizing a national consortium to develop the next generation Long Trace Profiler.

Mirror Pointing Stability
Set the stage…• 0.01µm (~0.02µrad) differential
motion of a mirror support with a 50m throw from the mirror to focus will translate the beam ~2µm.
• 0.01µm differential motion is obtained from a 0.1ºC temperature change acting on a mirror support structure where 20mm of carbon steel in one leg is substituted with stainless steel.

Mirror Pointing Feedback
Servo loop control of mirror pointing is conceptually trivial. The trick is the photon position sensitive detector …• reliable and stable measurement of beam center of
mass independent of beam energy, polarization, etc.
• adequate signal for reasonable sampling rates• minimally invasive so data can be collected
concurrently• position sensitivity proportional to beam size
