We present the construction of a focusing x‐ray analyser designed to operate in back‐diffraction geometry. A spherical crystal surface was achieved by positioning about 2000 small Si crystals on a concave glass substrate. The analyser was mounted at the XRD beamline of the LNLS (Laboratório Nacional de Luz Síncrotron) for testing the energy resolution of a spectrometer consisting of both a sagitally focusing monochromator and the analyser. Controlling the vertical angular divergence of the primary beam, resolving powers of Δ E & sol ; E ≈2 × 10 −4 could be achieved with good intensity. Copyright © 2002 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
