Patent attributes
An imaging type X-ray microscope capable of enlarging a numerical aperture even with high energy X-rays and acquiring a magnified image with sufficient intensity even in a laboratory. The imaging type X-ray microscope comprises an X-ray irradiation unit having a microfocal and high-power X-ray source and a condenser mirror for focusing and irradiating the emitted X-rays toward a sample, a sample holding unit for holding the sample, a reflecting mirror type X-ray lens unit for imaging X-rays transmitted through the sample, and an imaging unit for acquiring the imaged X-ray image, wherein each mirror constituting the condenser mirror and the reflecting mirror type X-ray lens unit has a reflecting surface formed with a multilayer film having a high reflectivity in X-rays of a specific wavelength.
