Using multilayer zone plates (MZPs) as two-dimensional optics, focal spot sizes of less than 10 nm can be achieved, as we show here with a focus of 8.4 nm × 9.6 nm, but the need for order-sorting apertures prohibits practical working distances. To overcome this issue, here an off-axis illumination of a circular MZP is introduced to trade off between working distance and focal spot size. By this, the working distance between order-sorting aperture and sample can be more than doubled. Exploiting a 2D focus of 16 nm × 28 nm, real-space 2D mapping of local electric fields and charge carrier recombination using X-ray beam induced current in a single InP nanowire is demonstrated. Simulations show that a dedicated off-axis MZP can reach sub-10 nm focusing combined with reasonable working distances and low background, which could be used for in operando imaging of composition, carrier collection and strain in nanostructured devices.

AbstractDemountable rotating anode X-ray tubes with a 7½ kW power dissipation have been built for conventional diffraction work with powder cameras and equi-inclination Weissenberg goniometers, and for use with a tetrahedral press for studying crystalline matter at ultra-high pressures. The tubes employ a highly compact cooling and sealing arrangement on the rotating anode which enables four windows to be used with the focal spot close to the specimen. A rotational speed of 1750 rpm with a focal spot size of 10 × 1 mm enables the tubes to be operated at 250–275 mA at 30 kV DC or at 150 mA, 50 kV DC.
