Monochromatisation of g-rays with ppm resolution via Crystal Diffraction Michael Jentschel Institut Laue-Langevin ELI-NP, March 2011, Bucharest
Monochromatisation via Laue - Diffraction • Good Resolution: • Perfect crystals • Angle measurement Gradient crystals Perfect crystals Good for high resolution Good as high efficiency band pass filter
Laue-Diffraction at a perfect crystal Line profile Zachariasen, 1967 Diffraction Angle Resolution is independent of Gamma Ray Energy
Estimate of possible resolution DqB ~10-8rad qB~10-2rad Diffraction process allows to have ppm resolution!
Double crystal Geometry ILL geometry: 4p source 1016 10-6 10-5 10-2 103 ELI case: ~10-7 I0
Diffraction efficiency of perfect crystals How does a crystal reflect, if the beam divergence fits its acceptance width ? 3rd order 22%
