Laboratory grazing-incidence X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy as an analytical tool for the investigation of sub-nanometer CrSc multilayer water window optics
Efficient multilayer optics for radiation in the water window range are difficult to manufacture due to extremely small layer thicknesses and severe intermixing of elements between the layers. Therefore, adequate analytics and short feedback loops are of utmost importance for manufacturers to improve performance and efficiency. We show the possibility for non-destructive elemental depth profiling with commercial laboratory equipment using four real-life CrSc multilayer samples. Comparative measurements at the laboratory of PTB at the synchrotron radiation facility BESSY II confirm the results and prove the potential of laboratory equipment for the reliable analysis of stratified materials with sub-nanometer layer thicknesses.
