Abstract
With the nearly full spatial coherence of X-ray free electron lasers comes unprecedented requirements on the precise figure of X-ray mirrors. For example, the Time-resolved AMO Instrument (TMO) requires a bendable Kirkpatrick-Baez (KB) mirror system in order to produce a range of focus spot sizes, while maintaining nm-level figure error across the corresponding range of elliptical shapes. Here we describe the process of TMO KB mirror characterization using optical metrology, the detailed comparison with at-wavelength wavefront sensors during instrument commissioning, and the implementation of an automatic focusing system that ties together the wavefront sensor output with the mirror bender controls.
