Key Points

  • The study aims to describe a two-axis goniometer used for X-ray characterization of diffractors.
  • Developed a goniometer system paired with an x-ray source for measurements.
  • Measured double-crystal integrated reflectivity of diffractors.
  • Computed polarization adjustments to estimate single-crystal integrated reflectivity.
  • Analyzed synchronized motion profiles of diffractors to evaluate angular errors.
  • Achieved angular error deviations of approximately 2 arcsec.
  • Exhibited favorable motion profiles across the full range of Bragg angles (0°–86°).
  • Validated effective measurement techniques for integrated reflectivity in spectrometers.

Abstract

A detailed description of a two-axis goniometer paired with an x-ray source is provided, encompassing measurements of double-crystal integrated reflectivity for diffractors employed in JET spectrometers. Polarization adjustments to these measurements are computed to estimate single-crystal integrated reflectivity. Synchronized parallel and dispersive diffractor motion profiles at this facility exhibit favorable angular error distributions, engaging all motors with deviations of ∼2 arcsec across the full range of accessible Bragg angles (0°–86°).
