Design of and metrological results from a bent parabolic mirror.
This article describes the successful design and fabrication of, and metrological results from, an elastically bent parabolic mirror. The mirror is equipped with a bending structure that allows the mirror to be bent meridionally to a parabolic shape. This bent parabolic mirror is the key component of the extremely high-quality monochromators designed for the SPring-8 figure-8 soft X-ray undulator and the 2.0 GeV high-brilliance synchrotron radiation source (VSX).
