Instrumentation for Plasma Experiments
Bertin Winlight designs and builds x-ray microscopes
used in plasma diagnostics for large scientific facilities.
Plasma diagnostics in the X-ray spectrum mainly require toroidal mirrors and positioning accuracy to within a couple microns. These subassemblies demand a highly advanced design to guarantee performance without easy factory testing, and also require highly specific assembly techniques.
Mirror geometry is also key because it determines the correct positioning of the mirrors – and this is where our long experience in making X-ray mirrors comes to the fore.
X-ray microscope
Bertin Winlight designs, builds and tests single or multi-channel X-ray microscopes for plasma diagnostics used in large facilities, especially high-power lasers.
