(a) Description of the contoured crystal. L, t and w are the crystal length, thickness and width, respectively. Lm is the distance between the points where the moments are applied with the four-point bender. The typical values of these parameters in our experiment are L = 300 mm, t = 1 mm, w(x) ≃ 21.5 mm and Lm = 260 mm. (b) Profile of the crystal as described by equation (6) with the optimization energy chosen at 7 keV and a q value of 0.8 m. The width contour is not symmetric as expected in order to be able to produce an elliptical bending. |
