Abstract

Condenser optics focuses x‐rays on a sample position and has a major effect on the exposure time as well as the contrast of a full‐field x‐ray microscope. We have compared two kinds of condenser optics: a capillary and a zone plate by taking images of the same sample at three different x‐ray microscopes.
