Coherent x-ray optics
By: Paganin, David M.
Series: Oxford series on synchrotron radiation. /edited by J. Chikawa and J. R. Helliwell; no.6.Publisher: Oxford Oxford University Press 2013Description: xii, 411p.ISBN: 9780199673865.Subject(s): X-ray optics | X-rays -- DiffractionDDC classification: 621.361 | P14c Summary: This book gives a thorough treatment of the rapidly-expanding field of coherent X-ray optics, which has recently experienced something of a renaissance with the availability of third-generation synchrotron sources. It is the first book of its kind. The author begins with a treatment of the fundamentals of X-ray diffraction for both coherent and partially coherent radiation, together with the interactions of X-rays with matter. X-ray sources, optical elements and detectors are then discussed, with an emphasis on their role in coherent X-ray optics. Various facets of coherent X-ray imaging are then discussed, including holography, interferometry, self imaging, phase contrast and phase retrieval. Lastly, the foundations of the new field of singular X-ray optics are examined. Most topics are developed from first principles, with numerous references given to the contemporary research literature. This book will be useful to X-ray physicists and students, together with optical physicists and engineers who wish to learn more about the fascinating subject of coherent X-ray optics.Item type | Current location | Collection | Call number | Status | Date due | Barcode | Item holds |
