Abstract
Maximizing the performance of crystal monochromators is a key aspect in the design of beamline optics for diffraction-limited synchrotron sources. Temperature and deformation of cryo-cooled crystals, illuminated by high-power beams of X-rays, can be estimated with a purely analytical model. The analysis is based on the thermal properties of cryo-cooled silicon crystals and the cooling geometry. Deformation amplitudes can be obtained, quickly and reliably. In this article the concept of threshold power conditions is introduced and defined analytically. The contribution of parameters such as liquid-nitrogen cooling efficiency, thermal contact conductance and interface contact area of the crystal with the cooling base is evaluated. The optimal crystal illumination and the base temperature are inferred, which help minimize the optics deformation. The model has been examined using finite-element analysis studies performed for several beamlines of the Diamond-II upgrade.

Abstract
We present a new mounting design for thin crystal optics with cryogenic cooling compatibility. We design a crystal geometry with two symmetric strain-relief cuts to mitigate the distortion from mounting. We propose to sputter gold onto the crystal and the holder to ensure excellent thermal contact and sufficient mechanical bonding. The system is analyzed and verified by finite element analysis to have an acceptable level of strain due to mounting. The thermal performance of this mounting scheme is validated in an example cryogenic cooling system and the results indicate a tolerance of power density up to ∼1 kW/mm2.

Abstract
The design and implementation of new beamlines featuring side-bounce (single-reflection) diamond monochromators at Cornell High Energy Synchrotron Source (CHESS) are described. Undulator radiation is monochromated using an interchangeable set of diamond crystal plates reflecting radiation in the horizontal (synchrotron) plane, where each crystal plate is set to one of the low-index Bragg reflections (111, 220, 311 and 400) in either Bragg or Laue reflection geometries. At the nominal Bragg angle of 18° these reflections deliver monochromated X-rays with photon energies of 9.7, 15.9, 18.65 and 22.5 keV, respectively. An X-ray mirror downstream of the diamond monochromator is used for rejection of higher radiation harmonics and for initial focusing of the monochromated beam. The characteristics of the X-ray beam entering the experimental station were measured experimentally and compared with the results of simulations. A reasonable agreement is demonstrated. It is shown that the use of selected high-dislocation-density `mosaic' diamond single-crystal plates produced using the chemical vapor deposition method yields a few-fold enhancement in the flux density of the monochromated beam in comparison with that delivered by perfect crystals under the same conditions. At present, the Functional Materials Beamline at CHESS, which is used for time-resolved in situ characterization of soft materials during processing, has been outfitted with the described setup.

Abstract
At a soft X-ray beamline with an undulator source, significant heat generation at the first-mirror chamber and light emission at the viewport were found, which can be explained by photoelectrons from the mirror. The chamber temperature increases up to approximately 50°C over a period of several hours. A photoelectron shield consisting of thin copper plates not only prevents the heat generation and light emission but also improves the pressure of the vacuum chamber, if a voltage of a few tens of V is applied to the shield. The total electron yield of the shield reached as much as 58 mA under high heat-load conditions, indicating the emission of numerous photoelectrons from the first mirror. Heat-balance analyses suggest that approximately 30% or more of the heat load on the first mirror is transferred to the surroundings.

Abstract
A compact low-cost cryocooling system has been designed, constructed, and tested at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory. The cooling power is provided by natural convection and phase change of the liquid nitrogen. The initial application was to cool silicon crystal optics to the sub-100 K range. A silicon crystal of dimension (width × depth × height) 50 × 50 × 30 mm3 has been used with an electric heater on the top surface in this prototyping test. This system can effectively provide more than 80 W of cooling power to the optics with a consumption of liquid nitrogen less than 2.1 l/h. The vibration of the silicon crystal was monitored during the tests with added electric heater power on the crystal. The vibration of the silicon crystal due to liquid nitrogen boiling is negligible.

Abstract
Non-uniform thermal load causes performance degradation of crystal X-ray optics. With the development of high-brightness X-ray free-electron lasers, the thermal load on X-ray optics becomes even more severe. To mitigate the thermal load, a quantitative understanding of thermal effects on the optical performance is necessary. We derived an analytical model for monochromator performance under a non-uniform thermal load. This analytical model quantitatively describes the distortion of the rocking curve and attributes different contributions to different factors of thermal load. It provides not only monochromator design insights and considerations, but also a quick estimation of the rocking curve distortion due to thermal load for practical situations such as pump-probe experiments.

Abstract
At the Brazilian Synchrotron Light Laboratory (LNLS), new double-crystal monochromators are under development for use at the new Brazilian fourth-generation synchrotron, Sirius. The soldering technique used for the double-crystal monochromators ensures the union of monocrystalline silicon with FeNi alloy, Invar36 (64Fe-36Ni) from Grupo Metal and Invar39 (61Fe-39Fe) from Scientific Alloys, through SnSb (92.8Sn-7.2Sb), SnCu (Sn-0.3Cu) and SnBiCu (Sn-1.4Bi-0.7Cu) alloys from Nihon Superior. Following soldering tests and quantitative analysis, the Invar39/SnBiCu/Si samples were selected using base materials coated with different depositions - gold and copper. X-ray diffraction identified the formation of intermetallic compounds, such as AuSn2 and AuSn4 in base materials coated with gold and Cu3Sn and Cu6Sn5 with copper. Before thermal cycling, the average force obtained in shear tests was 1131 N with copper deposition and 499 N with gold deposition. After five consecutive thermal cycles from room temperature down to cryogenic temperature (-196.15°C), specimens with gold deposition presented cracks in the interface region and those with copper deposition showed no defects. Based on this, qualitative and semi-quantitative analyses of specimens with copper deposition were carried out by scanning electron microscopy and energy-dispersive spectroscopy techniques to identify the composition, distribution and morphology of the elements.

Abstract
In order to provide adequate cryogenic cooling of both existing and next-generation crystal monochromators, a new approach to produce an optimum thermal interface between the first crystal and its copper heat exchanger is proposed. This will ensure that the increased heat load deposited by higher X-ray powers can be properly dissipated. Utilizing a cylindrical silicon crystal, a tubular copper heat exchanger and by exploiting the differing thermal and mechanical properties of the two, a very good thermal interface was achieved at liquid-nitrogen temperatures. The surface flatness of the diffracting plane at one end of the cylindrical crystal was measured at room temperature while unconstrained. The crystal was then placed into the copper heat exchanger, a slide fit at room temperature, and then cooled to liquid-nitrogen temperature. At -200°C the slide fit became an interference fit. This room-temperature `loose' fit was modelled using finite-element analysis to obtain the desired fit at cryogenic temperatures by prescribing the fit at room temperature. Under these conditions, the diffraction surface was measured for distortion due to thermal and mechanical clamping forces. The total deformation was measured to be 30 nm, an order of magnitude improvement over deformation caused by cooling alone with the original side-clamped design this concept method is set to replace. This new methodology also has the advantage that it is repeatable and does not require macro-scale tools to acquire a nanometre-accuracy mounting.

Abstract
The effect of angular vibrations of the crystals in cryogenically cooled monochromators on the beam performance has been studied theoretically and experimentally. A simple relation between amplitude of the vibrations and size of the focused beam is developed. It is shown that the double-crystal monochromator vibrations affect not only the image size but also the image position along the optical axis. Several methods to measure vibrations with the X-ray beam are explained and analyzed. The methods have been applied to systematically study angular crystal vibrations at monochromators installed at the PETRA III light source. Characteristic values of the amplitudes of angular vibrations for different monochromators are presented.

Abstract
Following pioneering work 40 years ago, synchrotron beamlines dedicated to macromolecular crystallography (MX) have improved in almost every aspect as instrumentation has evolved. Beam sizes and crystal dimensions are now on the single micron scale while data can be collected from proteins with molecular weights over 10 MDa and from crystals with unit cell dimensions over 1000 Å. Furthermore it is possible to collect a complete data set in seconds, and obtain the resulting structure in minutes. The impact of MX synchrotron beamlines and their evolution is reflected in their scientific output, and MX is now the method of choice for a variety of aims from ligand binding to structure determination of membrane proteins, viruses and ribosomes, resulting in a much deeper understanding of the machinery of life. A main driving force of beamline evolution have been advances in almost every aspect of the instrumentation comprising a synchrotron beamline. In this review we aim to provide an overview of the current status of instrumentation at modern MX experiments. The most critical optical components are discussed, as are aspects of endstation design, sample delivery, visualisation and positioning, the sample environment, beam shaping, detectors and data acquisition and processing.

Abstract
To cover a large photon energy range, the length of an X-ray mirror is often longer than the beam footprint length for much of the applicable energy range. To limit thermal deformation of such a water-cooled X-ray mirror, a technique using side cooling with a cooled length shorter than the beam footprint length is proposed. This cooling length can be optimized by using finite-element analysis. For the Kirkpatrick-Baez (KB) mirrors at LCLS-II, the thermal deformation can be reduced by a factor of up to 30, compared with full-length cooling. Furthermore, a second, alternative technique, based on a similar principle is presented: using a long, single-length cooling block on each side of the mirror and adding electric heaters between the cooling blocks and the mirror substrate. The electric heaters consist of a number of cells, located along the mirror length. The total effective length of the electric heater can then be adjusted by choosing which cells to energize, using electric power supplies. The residual height error can be minimized to 0.02 nm RMS by using optimal heater parameters (length and power density). Compared with a case without heaters, this residual height error is reduced by a factor of up to 45. The residual height error in the LCLS-II KB mirrors, due to free-electron laser beam heat load, can be reduced by a factor of ∼11 below the requirement. The proposed techniques are also effective in reducing thermal slope errors and are, therefore, applicable to white beam mirrors in synchrotron radiation beamlines.

Abstract
Developments of X-ray optics for full utilization of diffraction-limited storage rings (DLSRs) are presented. The expected performance of DLSRs is introduced using the design parameters of SPring-8 II. To develop optical elements applicable to manipulation of coherent X-rays, advanced technologies on precise processing and metrology were invented. With propagation-based coherent X-rays at the 1 km beamline of SPring-8, a beryllium window fabricated with the physical-vapour-deposition method was found to have ideal speckle-free properties. The elastic emission machining method was utilized for developing reflective mirrors without distortion of the wavefronts. The method was further applied to production of diffraction-limited focusing mirrors generating the smallest spot size in the sub-10 nm regime. To enable production of ultra-intense nanobeams at DLSRs, a low-vibration cooling system for a high-heat-load monochromator and advanced diagnostic systems to characterize X-ray beam properties precisely were developed. Finally, new experimental schemes for combinative nano-analysis and spectroscopy realised with novel X-ray optics are discussed.

Abstract
The performance of a cryogenically cooled double-crystal silicon monochromator was studied under high-heat-load conditions with total absorbed powers and power densities ranging from 8 to 780 W and from 8 to 240 W mm(-2), respectively. When the temperature of the first crystal is maintained close to the temperature of zero thermal expansion of silicon, the monochromator shows nearly ideal performance with a thermal slope error of 0.6 µrad. By tuning the size of the first slit, the regime of the ideal performance can be maintained over a wide range of heat loads, i.e. from power densities of 110 W mm(-2) (at total absorbed power of 510 W) to 240 W mm(-2) (at total absorbed power of 240 W).

Abstract
X-ray crystal monochromators exposed to white-beam X-rays in third-generation synchrotron light sources are subject to thermal deformations that must be minimized using an adequate cooling system. A new approach was used to measure the crystal shape profile and slope of several cryogenically cooled (liquid nitrogen) silicon monochromators as a function of beam power in situ and under heat load. The method utilizes multiple angular scans across the Bragg peak (rocking curve) at various vertical positions of a narrow-gap slit downstream from the monochromator. When increasing the beam power, the surface of the liquid-nitrogen-cooled silicon crystal deforms from a concave shape at low heat load to a convex shape at high heat load, passing through an approximately flat shape at intermediate heat load. Finite-element analysis is used to calculate the crystal thermal deformations. The simulated crystal profiles and slopes are in excellent agreement with experiments. The parameters used in simulations, such as material properties, absorbed power distribution on the crystal and cooling boundary conditions, are described in detail as they are fundamental for obtaining accurate results.
