Even 100 years after the first publication of the Bragg equation, there are current developments which are still mainly based on this fundamental law. One of these developments are multilayer optics which are used for beam shaping of X-rays e.g. for focusing the X-rays onto the sample. The multilayer optics simulate an artificial crystal with the typical distance d of the Bragg equation. It is advantageous that this distance can be changed and thus adapted to the specific application and setup. The development of multilayer optics allowed a performance increase of modern diffractometers by more than one order of magnitude. In this contribution, we will give an overview of current developments of multilayer optics. We will explain the design and the manufacturing process of the optics and give some examples of typical applications which benefit from the new possibilities, especially in combination with modern microfocus X-ray sources. Applications like GISAXS, highpressure XRD or micro-diffraction known from synchrotrons, can be realized now in the home-lab.
