Description
In this paper, the results of high-resolution X-ray topography characterization of monocrystal diamond plate with (100) crystal surface orientation used as high-quality monochromator of high-heat-load free electron lasers are reported. The monocrystal diamond plate was grown using high-pressure high-temperature method and fabricated by laser-cutting. The intrinsic crystal quality of the diamond surface was studied using sequential X-ray diffraction method of synchrotron radiation in weak-dispersive and non-dispersive configuration and the rocking-curve topography of the lattice was obtained. The variations of the rocking-curve width and peak position measured with 7.4 μm spatial resolution and ~10-7 energy resolution over a 0.5 mm×0.5 mm selected region was found to be less than 0.5 μrad, which was suitable for applications in wavefront-preserving high-heat-load crystal optics.
