The Small-angle X-Ray Scattering Investigation of Advanced Beryllium Materials
Abstract
The small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) technique allows to determine size distributions of inhomogeneities in materials and to predict their properties in Xray optics devices. A number of beryllium materials for the manufacturing of X-ray optics (refractive lenses and speckle suppressors) have been studied by the SAXS.
Various composite materials based on porous beryllium have been studied. The effect of adding detonation nanodiamonds to the beryllium matrix on the scattering ability of the material is discussed.
Keywords: porous beryllium, SAXS, detonation nanodiamonds, speckle-suppressor
