“…As an example, lobster eye optics can be modified for efficient collection of laser-plasma radiation for wavelengths longer than 8 nm [66]. The optics for this application consist of two orthogonal stacks of ellipsoidal mirrors forming a doublefocusing device [66]. The ellipsoidal surfaces were covered by a layer of gold that has relatively high reflectivity at the wavelength range that is 8-20 nm up to an incident angle of around 10 degrees.…”

This chapter describes the history, principles, and recent developments of large field of view X-ray optics based on lobster eye designs. Most of grazing incidence (reflective) X-ray imaging systems used in astronomy and other applications, are based on the Wolter 1 (or modified) arrangement. But there are also other designs and configurations proposed for future applications for both laboratory and space environments. Kirkpatrick-Baez (K-B) based lenses as well as various types of lobster eye optics serve as an example. Analogously to Wolter lenses, all these systems use the principle that the X-rays are reflected twice to create focal images. Various future projects in X-ray astronomy and astrophysics will require large optics with wide fields of view. Both large Kirkpatrick-Baez modules and lobster eye X-ray telescopes may serve as solutions as these can offer innovations such as wide fields of view, low mass and reduced costs. The basic workings of lobster eye optics using Micro Pore Optics (MPOs) and their various uses are discussed. The issues and limiting factors of these optics are evaluated and current missions using lobster eye optics to fulfill their science objectives are reviewed. The Multi Foil Optics (MFO) approach represents a promising alternative. These arrangements can also be widely applied in laboratory devices. The chapter also examines the details of alternative applications for non-Wolter systems in other areas of science, where some of these systems have already demonstrated their advantages such as the K-B systems which have already found wide applications in laboratories and synchrotrons.

The recent advancements in technology of compact laser plasma EUV sources based on a gas puff target are presented in the paper. The sources have been developed for application in processing materials using EUV radiation in the wavelength range from about 5 nm to about 50 nm that is efficiently produced in result of irradiation a double-stream gas puff target with high-intensity laser pulses from a Nd:YAG laser (0.8 J/4 ns/10 Hz). The sources can be equipped with two various grazing incidence optical systems to focus EUV radiation: an axisymmetrical ellipsoidal mirror or a multifoil mirror system of the "lobster eye" type. A new design of the laser plasma EUV source dedicated for micro-and nanoprocessing polymers and modification of polymer surfaces is presented for the first time.

Results on micro-and nanoprocessing of organic polymers using X-rays and extreme ultraviolet (EUV) generated from laser-plasma radiation sources are presented in the paper. The sources used in the studies are based on the gas puff target approach developed at the Institute of Optoelectronics, Warsaw. Processing of polymers is connected with non-thermal ablation under the influence of energetic photons of X-ray and EUV radiation. The process can be useful for practical applications as it makes possible to produce structures with sub-micron spatial resolution that is not possible using the thermal ablation. The new technology will be used for production of photonic microstructures and for modification of polymer surfaces for biomedical applications..
