Coherent X-Ray Optics Hardback
by David (School of Physics, Monash University, Australia) Paganin
Part of the Oxford Series on Synchrotron Radiation series
Hardback
Description
This book gives a thorough treatment of the rapidly-expanding field of coherent x-ray optics, which has recently experienced something of a renaissance with the availability of third-generation synchrotron sources.
It is the first book of its kind. The author begins with a treatment of the fundamentals of x-ray diffraction for both coherent and partially coherent radiation, together with the interactions of x-rays with matter.
X-ray sources, optics elements and detectors are then discussed, with an emphasis on their role in coherent x-ray optics.
Various facets of coherent x-ray imaging are then discussed, including holography, interferometry, self imaging, phase contrast and phase retrieval.
Lastly, the foundations of the new field of singular x-ray optics are examined.
Most topics are developed from first principles, with numerous references given to the contemporary research literature.
This book will be useful to x-ray physicists and students, together with optical physicists and engineers who wish to learn more about the fascinating subject of coherent x-ray optics.
