AI Article Synopsis
- The Linac Coherent Light Source demonstrated a novel method for optimizing and characterizing X-ray focus using coherent scattering and quantitative speckle size measurements.
- The technique was tested in two different focusing configurations, showcasing its ability to determine the focus's location, size, and shape effectively.
- It allows for real-time capture of pulse-to-pulse fluctuations, offering an advantage over traditional methods that need scanning and averaging.
Article Abstract
X-ray focus optimization and characterization based on coherent scattering and quantitative speckle size measurements was demonstrated at the Linac Coherent Light Source. Its performance as a single-pulse free-electron laser beam diagnostic was tested for two typical focusing configurations. The results derived from the speckle size/shape analysis show the effectiveness of this technique in finding the focus' location, size and shape. In addition, its single-pulse compatibility enables users to capture pulse-to-pulse fluctuations in focus properties compared with other techniques that require scanning and averaging.
