Chromatic confocal microscopy (CCM) has been intensively developed because it can
exhibit effective focal position scanning based on the axial chromatic aberration of …

The Hartmann wavefront sensor is able to measure, separately and in absolute, the real δ
and imaginary parts β of the X-ray refractive index. While combined with tomographic setup …

X-ray wavefront measurement is an important beam diagnostic tool, especially for the
diffraction-limited X-ray beam. These in situ diagnostics give a better understanding of beam …

The aim of this PhD thesis is to develop the technic of X-ray phase imaging with Hartmann
wavefront sensor for various applications and to compare this new system against well …

X-ray optics are extensively used in synchrotron radiation and free-electron laser facilities,
as well as in table-top laboratory sources. They are used to collimate, focus or, in general, to …
