K. Mashima et al., COMPARISON OF MONOCHROMATORS WITH A BENT PARABOLIC-MIRROR AND A VARIED-SPACING GRATING FOR THE 2.0 GEV HIGH-BRILLIANCE SYNCHROTRON-RADIATION SOURCE (VSX), Journal of synchrotron radiation, 5, 1998, pp. 817-819
A design study of monochromators for a 2.0 GeV electron/positron stora
ge ring for high-brilliance synchrotron radiation in the vacuum ultrav
iolet (VUV) and the soft X-ray regions is described, Two types of VUV/
soft X-ray grazing-incidence monochromators, one with a bent parabolic
mirror and the other with a varied-spacing grating, are designed. Wit
hout any slope error, the expected resolving power of the former is mu
ch higher, but the latter is less affected by slope errors of the opti
cal elements.
