B. Niemann et al., A rotating condenser and off-axis zone plate monochromator for the TXM at the undulator U41 at BESSY II, NUCL INST A, 467, 2001, pp. 857-860
The Gottingen transmission X-ray microscope at the low emittance electron s
torage ring BESSY II uses the concept of dynamical aperture synthesis (Reyn
olds, DeVelis, Parrent. Thomson (Eds.), The New Physical Optics Notebook, S
PIE, 1990, pp. 536-548) for the object illumination. The concept is well su
ited as a condenser, as it can match any required numerical aperture of the
TXM objective. Furthermore, a novel off-axis transmission zone-plate monoc
hromator is included. which can generate a monochromaticity of several thou
sand in the object illumination. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights
