| Research Abstract |
I developed a novel focusing optical system with two elliptical mirrors aligned side-by-side to improve performance of scanning X-ray microscopes. Size of an X-ray beam reflected on the mirrors was investigated at an X-ray energy of 11.5 keV in SPring-8. We achieved FWHM of 46 nm in one-dimensional focusing with the one mirror. Additionally, FWHM of 206 nm was obtained in two-dimensional focusing with the two mirrors.
