Popis: A prime application of figured multilayer structures as X-ray optics is the combination with a laser produced plasma. As a source of soft X-rays, a laser-plasma has proven its attractive properties: a high instantaneous brightness, good shot-to-shot stability and nearly pointlike dimensions. The combination of laser-plasma and X-ray optics would give improved performance in e.g. plasma diagnostics, rapid detection of low Z elements in solid samples, pulsed laser irradiated materials and lithographic imaging of submicron patterns. In the latter application, a parabolic multilayer structure has the potential to convert the emission of the point source into a large parallel and homogeneous beam to prevent several distortions in the lithographic imaging.
