Popis: A cantilevered liquid-nitrogen-cooled silicon mirror is described that will achieve diffraction-limited performance even under extreme power density. This mirror will serve as a robust first optic for the high-brightness undulator beamlines at the upgraded Advanced Light Source.
This paper presents a novel cantilevered liquid-nitro­gen-cooled silicon mirror design for the first optic in a new soft X-ray beamline that is being developed as part of the Advanced Light Source Upgrade (ALS-U) (Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, USA). The beamline is optimized for photon energies between 400 and 1400 eV with full polarization control. Calculations indicate that, without correction, this design will achieve a Strehl ratio greater than 0.85 for the entire energy and polarization ranges of the beamline. With a correction achieved by moving the focus 7.5 mm upstream, the minimum Strehl ratio is 0.99. This design is currently the baseline plan for all new ALS-U insertion device beamlines.
