Charge Density Wave bending observed by Xfel source acting as a tunable electronic lens for hard x-rays

La courbure d'une onde de densité de charge observée par une source Xfel utilisée comme une lentille électronique pour les rayons X

Résumé

Ultrafast X-ray diffraction by the LCLS free-electron laser has been used to probe Charge Density Wave (CDW) systems under applied external currents. At sufficiently low currents, CDW wavefronts bend in the direction transverse to the 2kF wave vector. We show that this shear effect has the ability to focus or defocus hard X-ray beams, depending of the current direction, making it an electronic lens of a new kind, tunable at will from the Fraunhofer to the Fresnel regime. The effect is interpreted using the fractional Fourier transform showing how the macroscopic curvature of a nanometric modulation can be beneficially used to modify the propagation of X-ray beams.
