In order to enhance the available signal, Kirkpatrick-Baez focusing optics have been introduced in the 34-ID-C beamline at APS. Concerns about the preservation of coherence under these circumstances are addressed through experiment and by calculations. © 2003 Optical Society of America.Enhancement of coherent X-ray diffraction from nanocrystals by introduction of X-ray opticstext::journal::journal article::research article
