Abstract

Despite the extensive use of polycapillary x-ray optics for focusing and collimating applications, there remains a significant need for characterization of the coherence properties of the output wavefield. In this work, we present the first quantitative computational method for calculation of the spatial coherence effects of polycapillary x-ray optical devices. This method employs the coherent mode decomposition of an extended x-ray source, geometric optical propagation of individual wavefield modes through a polycapillary device, output wavefield calculation by ray data resampling onto a uniform grid, and the calculation of spatial coherence properties by way of the spectral degree of coherence.

Fig. 3 Simulation results showing the log intensity of the polycapillary device wavefield output at distances (d = 0–10 cm with 0.5 cm increments) from the output plane ( Media 1). As the wavefield propagates, the response from individual capillaries diverges and overlaps.

Fig. 4 Simulation results showing the spectral degree of coherence of the polycapillary device output wavefield. The spectral degree of coherence is a two-point quantity, and these data are shown as a function of r2 with r1 = (0, 0) on the left ( Media 2) and r1 = (63.8 μm, 0) on the right ( Media 3). r1 corresponds to the center point (left) and to the center point of the first capillary right of the center in the device output plane (right). Data are shown at distances (d = 0–10 cm with 0.5 cm increments) from the output plane.
