Active Microstructured Optical Arrays of Grazing Incidence Reflectors

Table 1

Summary of ray-tracing results. Ggeom is the gain calculated using the formula (22) or (25). Atrace (mm2) and Gtrace are the geometric area and gain calculated from the ray-tracing. FWHM (μm) is the width of the line-spread or point-spread function. GSi is the gain calculated including the reflectivity of 1 keV X-rays from a Silicon surface (uncoated). GAu is the gain calculated including the reflectivity of 1 keV X-rays from a Gold surface (channel walls coated).
