Abstract Laue diffraction theory of X-ray microbeams in multilayers (MLs) is developed. The solution for calculating X-ray reciprocal space maps is obtained. The pendulum (Pendellösung) effect for perfect and imperfect MLs is shown. The numerical simulation of Laue diffraction in Mo/Si multilayers with boundary conditions in the case of geometrical optics and the Fresnel approximation is carried out. It is shown that for X-ray microbeams one should to take into account the diffraction of X-ray waves at the edges of slits (collimators) of the diffraction scheme.

Using the formalism of dynamical scattering of spatially restricted X-ray fields, the diffraction of a microbeam in a crystal with boundary functions for the incident and reflected amplitudes was studied in the case of geometrical optics and the Fresnel approximation (FA). It is shown that, for a wide front of the X-ray field, the angular distributions of the scattered intensity in the geometrical optics approximation (GOA) and the FA are approximately the same. On the other hand, it is established that, for a narrow exit slit in the diffraction scheme, it is always necessary to take into account the X-ray diffraction at the slit edges. Reciprocal-space maps and the distribution of the diffraction intensity of the microbeam inside the crystal were calculated.

Equations describing the coherent and diffuse scattering in a crystal modulated by a surface acoustic wave (SAW) are derived using the dynamical X-ray diffraction theory. The effect of depth attenuation of the Rayleigh surface wave amplitude on the crystal rocking curve profiles is investigated. Results of the numerical simulation of the dynamical diffraction in a mosaic crystal modulated by a SAW, taking into account a block size distribution, are presented. It is shown that the diffuse scattering is distributed in the reciprocal space not only in the vicinity of the main diffraction peak but also about the satellite diffraction peaks, and this distribution depends on the size fluctuations of the crystal defects. Theoretical reciprocal space maps and rocking curves are compared with the corresponding experimental results.

Using the Takagi–Taupin equations, X-ray Laue dynamical diffraction in flat and wedge multilayers is theoretically considered. Recurrence relations are obtained that describe Laue diffraction in structures that are inhomogeneous in depth. The influence of sectioned depth, imperfections and non-uniform distribution of the multilayer period on the Pendellösung effect and rocking curves is studied. Numerical simulation of Laue diffraction in multilayer structures W/Si and Mo/Si is carried out. It is shown that the determination of sectioned depths based on the period of the interference fringes of the experimental rocking curves of synchrotron radiation is not always correct.

Since Du Mond and Kirkpatrick first discussed the principle of a bent crystal spectrograph in 1930, curved single crystals have been widely utilized as spectrometric monochromators as well as diffractors for focusing x rays diverging from a point. Curved crystal diffraction theory predicts that the diffraction parameters - the rocking curve width w, and the peak reflection coefficient r of curved crystals will certainly deviate from those of their flat form. Due to a lack of curved crystal parameter data in current literature and the need for optimizing the choice of diffraction geometry and crystal materials for various applications, we have continued the investigation of our technique presented at the last conference. In the present abstract, we describe a more rigorous and quantitative procedure for measuring the parameters of curved crystals.The diffraction image of a singly bent crystal under study can be obtained by using the Johann geometry with an x-ray point source.

AbstractX-ray topography provides a non-destructive method of mapping point-by-point variations in orientation and reflecting power within crystals. The discovery, made by several workers independently, that in nearly perfect crystals it was possible to detect individual dislocations by X-ray diffraction contrast started an epoch of rapid exploitation of X-ray topography as a new, general method for assessing crystal perfection. Another discovery, that of X-ray Pendellösung, led to important theoretical developments in X-ray diffraction theory and to a new and precise method for measuring structure factors on an absolute scale. Other highlights picked out for mention are studies of Frank-Read dislocation sources, the discovery of long dislocation helices and lines of coaxial dislocation loops in aluminium, of internal magnetic domain structures in Fe-3 wt.% Si, and of stacking faults in silicon and natural diamonds.

Carbon/Phenolic (C/P), a typical anisotropic material, is an important component of aerospace and often used to protect the thermodynamic effects of strong X-ray radiation. In this paper, we establish the anisotropic elastic-plastic constitutive model, which is embedded in the in-house code “RAMA” to simulate a two-dimensional thermal shock wave induced by X-ray. Then, we compare the numerical simulation results with the thermal shock wave stress generated by the same strong current electron beam via experiment to verify the correctness of the numerical simulation. Subsequently, we discuss and analyze the rules of thermal shock wave propagation in C/P material by further numerical simulation. The results reveal that the thermal shock wave represents different shapes and mechanisms by the radiation of 1 keV and 3 keV X-rays. The vaporization recoil phenomenon appears as a compression wave under 1 keV X-ray irradiation, and X-ray penetration is caused by thermal deformation under 3 keV X-ray irradiation. The thermal shock wave propagation exhibits two-dimensional characteristics, the energy deposition of 1 keV and 3 keV both decays exponentially, the energy deposition of 1 keV-peak soft X-ray is high, and the deposition depth is shallow, while the energy deposition of 3 keV-peak hard X-ray is low, and the deposition depth is deep. RAMA can successfully realize two-dimensional orthotropic elastoplastic constitutive relation, the corresponding program was designed and checked, and the calculation results for inspection are consistent with the theory. This study has great significance in the evaluation of anisotropic material protection under the radiation of intense X-rays.
