Abstract
Point source X-ray focusing device structures, materials and methods of forming them are provided which exhibit a greatly increased total reflected intensity for a desired X-ray wavelength of interest. The devices include one or more focusing elements which each have a focusing surface with a plurality of layer pairs formed thereon. The focusing surface and the layer pairs are designed to collect, reflect and concentrate the maximum X-ray flux from a point source to a focus point for a particular wavelength of interest.
