High-Resolution X-Ray Flash Radiography Of Ti Characteristic Lines With Multilayer Kirkpatrick-Baez Microscope At The Shenguang-Ii Update Laser Facility

High-resolution X-ray flash radiography of Ti characteristic lines with a multilayer Kirkpatrick-Baez microscope was developed on the Shenguang-II (SG-II) Update laser facility. The microscope uses an optimized multilayer design of Co/C and W/C stacks to obtain a high reflection efficiency of the Ti characteristic lines while meeting the precise alignment requirement at the Cu K alpha line. The alignment method based on dual simulated balls was proposed herein, which simultaneously realizes an accurate indication of the center field of view and the backlighter position. The optical design, multilayer coatings, and alignment method of the microscope and the experimental result of Ti flash radiography of the Au-coned CH shell target on the SG-II Update are described.
