Welcome to CXRO!
The Center for X-Ray Optics (CXRO) is a facility within the Materials Science Division at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory dedicated to advancing the science and technology of short-wave optical systems, including extreme ultraviolet (EUV) and soft x-ray radiation.
CXRO scientists participate in the MSD research programs of Condensed Matter and Materials Sciences. Major areas of interest at CXRO include: nanostructure fabrication; x-ray interactions with matter; x-ray microscopy; EUV photoresists and mask defect analysis; and novel diffractive optics. CXRO pursues a broad range of projects and develops new instrumentation to address national needs and technical challenges that impact materials, life, environmental sciences, and x-ray optics.
