Abstract: An X-ray camera includes a camera housing, an image pickup element which is sensitive at least for X-rays, and an X-ray objective. The X-ray objective lens has a capillary structure and the image pickup element is constructed as a two-dimensional pixilated semiconductor sensor for simultaneous spatial, energy and time resolution.

Abstract: The invention describes a capillary optical element with a complex structure of capillaries and a method for its manufacture. To achieve uniform transmission, for example, a lens can be used as a capillary optical element which has a complex structure with channels of different diameter. The channels with the smaller diameter operate effectively at higher energies, channels with intermediate diameters are intended for an intermediate energy range, whereas channels with a large diameter are used in a low energy range. A lens can consist, for example, of three zones: channels with small diameter are used in the central zone, channels with intermediate diameters are used in the intermediate annular zone, and the peripheral zone has channels of large diameters. The number of zones can arbitrary. In addition, a technical process for manufacturing the complex capillary structures is described.

Abstract: The invention describes a method and a device for the focussing of X-rays by means of glass capillary optics and serves, in particular, the purpose of realization of X-ray-zoom-optics. The method is based on the fact that, by means of the alteration of the distances of two semi-lenses arranged opposite each other, the focal lengths can be adjustably set.
