Spontaneous X-ray parametric scattering from a diamond single crystal
has been observed at the Photon Factory. The high perfection of the di
amond single crystal and the small angular divergence of synchrotron r
adiation has enabled down-converted X-ray photon pairs to scatter into
two small solid angles which satisfy the phase-matching condition. Hi
gh-efficiency noise reduction was performed using avalanche photodiode
detectors with good time resolution.
