Heat load investigations on diffractive optics: fabrication of ”zone plate” nanostructures on diamond substrate, simulations of heat transport, design of cooling systems, and heat load tests with beam

Coordinating university or institute

KTH Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm,

Facility

XFEL

Project description

The heat load on X-ray optics is very high at Free Eelectron Lasers. The purpose of this Project was to develop X-ray optics with effective heat transport and design of cooling systems.
