Nano and Micro Structures Image Based on Lens-Crystal System For Hard X-Ray Radiation

We present results of imaging properties of the lens-crystal system for hard x-ray radiation. The system is based on a beryllium parabolic refractive lens placed in front of the sample, and an asymmetric silicon single crystal placed behind the sample. We record the magnified x-ray phase contrast image at the x-ray energy 15~keV. The peculiarities of image transformation are investigated both experimentally and theoretically when the focus of refractive lens is moved across and along the optical axis. The computer program was elaborated for a simulation of image formation in the system based on the refractive lens and the crystal with asymmetric Bragg diffraction. The algorithm is based on the FFT procedure.
