The beam shaping optics of synchrotrons and X-ray free-electron lasers are routinely measured using deflectometric profilometers, which use autocollimators to evaluate the surface slope from the displacement of a reticle image on a detector. Here, novel strategies to reduce systematic measurement errors by using a set of overlapping images of the reticle obtained at different positions on the detector, which can reduce the systematic errors by up to a factor of four to five without recourse to external measurements, are discussed.

Software and hardware methods have been developed to correct images for spatial and intensity distortions produced by optical and electro-optical components in X-ray area detectors. Spatial distortions are divided into two types: gross distortions produced by the inherent properties of the detector components and local distortions formed by irregularities in the components. Intensity distortions are separated into three types: those caused by background nonuniformity; those resulting from pixel-dependent nonuniform intensity response; and those resulting from time-dependent variations in background and incident beam intensity. From background, flat-field, reference and mask images, `forward' and `reverse' interpolation tables are generated to correct for spatial distortions and a lookup table is generated to correct for nonuniform sensitivity. The routines have been used successfully on four different area detectors to correct entire images or to correct intensities of individual Bragg peaks. The spatial-distortion correction is good to within 0.1 pixels and the nonuniformity correction to ≲ 2%.

This article provides a unifying description of the diffraction and signal acquisition geometries of a 3D Bragg coherent diffraction imaging (BCDI) measurement, obtained from fundamental considerations of Fourier-conjugate spaces. Rigorously derived and presented in a compact operator notation, this approach can be easily generalized to any set of BCDI degrees of freedom.
