A versatile bendable monochromator double-crystal diffractometer was constructed, to investigate, using synchrotron radiation, single-crystal samples with high strain sensitivity and without any reduced image sizes. It is based on a local adaptation of Bragg angles between monochromator and sample.

The time dependence of the polarization of short X-ray pulses is simulated by Fourier transforms using the steady-state solutions from dynamical theory. The mixed states in particular show a very pronounced time dependence, as perpendicular and parallel polarization components have a different time response.

An X-ray diffractometer has been designed for industrial applications and installed at SPring-8 BL24XU in Japan. The diffractometer has been used for the grazing-incidence X-ray diffraction measurement of ion-implanted chromium-coated samples and for the X-ray stress measurement of polished stainless steel using our proposed new method.
