Focused X–rays are used in many analysis applications to increase the resolution of an imaging system or reduce experiment time through higher photon flux. Microworks offers several types of refractive X-ray lenses made of epoxy polymer.
See the Spec Sheet below for an example. Custom X-ray lenses are available upon request.
