The manufacturing steps and first tests of a refractive lens made of polycrystalline diamond are described. A fabrication process based on electron‐beam lithography and deep reactive ion etching is introduced. Experimental tests on beamline ID13 at the ESRF have been performed. A spot size of 360 nm (FWHM) at an energy E = 24.3 keV is observed.
