An X-ray microscope uses electromagnetic radiation in the soft X-ray band to produce images of very small objects. Unlike visible light microscopes, X-rays do not reflect or refract easily, and they are invisible to the human eye. Therefore the basic process of an X-ray microscope is to expose film or use a charge-coupled device (CCD) detector to detect X-rays that pass through the specimen, rather than light which bounces off the specimen. Early X-ray microscopes by Kirkpatrick and Baez used grazing-incidence reflective optics ...
