X-ray Optics - Studentportalen
... Optical properties of materials are characterized by the refractive index. X-ray optics is different from conventional optics because the refractive index is very close to (and smaller than) unity. In addition, absorption plays a larger role than in conventional optics. This can all be taken care of ...

The imaged pattern had an off-center helical wavefront, which is the result of the superposition of ℓ = 1 and ℓ = 0 modes. The results show strong evidence of single-photon ...
