Mirrors

Tender description

Within the next 12 months Diamond Light Source may have the requirement to purchase x-ray mirrors. Diamond Light Source require a number of focusing and collimating x-ray mirror systems for beam-lines. Some tenders may be for complete systems, including goniometry, vacuum vessels and some bending mechanisms others may be for just the mirrors. The mirrors will be manufactured from flat and cylindrically-polished substrate materials, with various surface coatings. Mirrors that are illuminating by the direct synchrotron beam will require appropriate water cooling circuits. Shape error and roughness requirements will be very stringent.
