In this work we perform a systematic theoretical study of oxidation process of different carbon
nanomaterials by atomic oxygen. In order to understand the atomistic mechanism of …

Contamination of X-ray mirror surfaces by carbon is a common issue that can significantly
degrade the optical performance of the instrument. The effects can be severe at photon …

Deposition of synchrotron-radiation-induced carbon contamination on beamline optics
causes their performance to deteriorate, especially near the carbon K edge. The photon flux …

Zirconium oxide thin film serves as one of the potential material candidates in extreme
ultraviolet/soft x-ray optics applications. The suitability of its application can be justified by …

A decrease in photon intensity due to carbon contamination on optical elements is a serious
issue in synchrotron radiation (SR) beamlines. Photon intensity can be regained by …

B _4 C-coated thin film mirrors are used in high brilliance synchrotron and x-ray free electron
laser beamlines due to their low absorption coefficient and high thermal stability. As in the …

The deposition of carbon films on X-ray optics is commonly observed, despite the use of an
ultra high vacuum (UHV) environment. Such contamination impacts the performance of the …

Synchrotron radiation (SR) induced contaminated toroidal mirror (TM2) of reflectivity beam
line at Indus-1 synchrotron source is resuscitated using zero order synchrotron radiation in …

Synchrotron radiation (SR) induced carbon contamination on optical elements is a serious
issue in SR beamlines. Carbon contamination reduces photon flux by scattering and …

In recent days optics contamination and its refurbishing is a serious issue for synchrotron
radiation beam line community. Here we refurbished a carbon contaminated mirror by Ar …
