The results of two crystal measurements of potassium acid phthalate crystal first order parallel position rocking curves, percent reflections, and reflection coefficients are presented. They cover the 4-24 Ǻ wavelength range and are typical of results with cleaved crystals illuminated over areas of one-half to two square inches. The energy resolution available with these crystals is shown to be nearly constant at about two-thirds of an electron volt over most of the energy range studied and the coefficient of reflection is also nearly constant at about 1 x 10-4 radians. A pronounced line-like reflectivity structure at 23.3 Ǻ is exhibited which is probably associated with oxygen atom K-shell absorption.

An electrically calibrated bolometer designed to measure VUV and soft X-ray radiation in tokamaks was installed at the end of the calibration beam line used by CEL-V at the LURE synchrotron. Low-noise electronics and an adequate data acquisition enabled absolute measurements of power densities as low as 1 μW/cm2. Power density measurements are presented. At the same location several soft X-ray detectors used in laser-plasma interaction studies were installed and their absolute calibration was performed (photocathodes, photodiodes, etc.). Calibration results are presented and compared with a Henke model for photocathode response.


Absolute measurements of the anomalous dispersion constants f ' for zirconium, niobium and molybdenum made with a computer controlled X-ray interferometer have achieved a precision that permits systematic comparison with the available theories. Measurements were made at about 80 wavelengths within ± 3 keV of the elements’ K-absorption edge. After modification, to minimize computational errors, the theory of Cromer and Liberman is in satisfactory agreement with the results obtained so far, but small systematic differences between theory and experiment are apparent. Further work on a wide variety of elements and over a wide wavelength band is in progress.

We have completed absolute measurements of the X-ray structure factors of silicon by the Pendellösung method using the techniques developed by Hart & Milne (1969). The 111, 220, 311, 400, 331, 422, 333, 511, 440, 444, 642, 660, 555, 844 and 880 reflexions were all measured in the symmetric Laue case with both MoKα 1 , and AgKα 1 radiations and at 92.2 and 293.2 K. The internal consistency of the results indicates that probable errors of order 0.1% are realistic.

Layered synthetic microstructures (LSM's) are useful dispersing devices for x-ray spectroscopy. They can be produced with virtually any layer spacing ( d) greater than approximately 10 Å and they have high diffraction efficiency. Integral reflection coefficients for such structures made up of alternating layers of a transition metal and carbon are 3 to 10 times greater than values for other dispersing elements used in the moderate to long wavelength region of the x-ray spectrum. Resolving power of the LSMs is somewhat poorer than crystals at this time but is sufficient to permit significant applications.

A model for analysing the phase sensitivity of the reflection coefficients of a diffracted wave in the case of three-wave X-ray diffraction is proposed. This model considers three-wave diffraction as the interference of the directly excited and the Umweg-excited diffracted waves and seems to account properly for the phase sensitivity as well as the behaviour of an involved diffracted wave as a function of the triplet phase invariant, the polarization state of the incident wave and the diffraction geometry. The practical issues for phase determination are also considered.
