Previously (Chen et al., 2004), it was shown that dielectric cylinder can form focal spots with small diameters and long depth. This type of focal spot was called photonic nanojet. In this paper, it was shown that dielectric cylinder of radius 595 nm (1.12 of wavelength) forms near the surface a photonic nanojet with diameter equal to 0.31 of wavelength and depth of focus equal to 0.57 of wavelength. Adding truncated concentric rings with radiuses equal to radiuses of zone plate to the cylinder increases the depth of focus to 1.18 of the wavelength. The diameter and intensity of focal spot near the cylinder surface remain unchanged.

Abstract Using the FDTD simulation, sharp focusing of a linearly polarized Gaussian beam with an embedded topological charge m = 3 by a phase zone plate and focusing of a Gaussian beam by a phase spiral zone plate with topological charge m = 3 were studied. The obtained results showed that proposed elements formed different patterns of intensity at a focal plane. The spiral zone plate forms a focal spot with three petals. At a distance of 13.5 μm from the focus, the lobe structure of the intensity (and energy flux) is replaced by an annular distribution.

Investigation of the influence of parameters of silver, aluminum, gold, and chromium spiral zone plates on the longitudinal component of Umov-Pointing vector in produced optical vortices by using the frequency-dependent finite-difference time-domain method is presented. It is shown that the aluminum spiral zone plate with a relief height of 50 nm gives an optical vortex with the smallest longitudinal component of Umov-Pointing vector on the optical axis. The gold spiral zone plate is the least effective for the formation of vortex beams with a reverse energy flow.

A monolithic, polycapillary, x-ray optic was adapted to a laboratory-based x-ray microprobe to evaluate the potential of the optic for x-ray micro fluorescence analysis. The polycapillary was capable of collecting x-rays over a 6 degree angle from a point source and focusing them to a spot approximately 40 µm diameter. The high intensities expected from this capillary should be useful for determining and mapping minor to trace elements in materials. Fig. 1 shows a sketch of the capillary with important dimensions.The microprobe had previously been used with straight and with tapered monocapillaries. Alignment of the monocapillaries with the focal spot was accomplished by electromagnetically scanning the focal spot over the beveled anode. With the polycapillary it was also necessary to manually adjust the distance between the focal spot and the polycapillary.The focal distance and focal spot diameter of the polycapillary were determined from a series of edge scans.
