HOPG Monochromatos
HOPG crystals are widely used as X-rays and neutron monochromators.
As mosaic crystals, HOPG exhibits the highest integral reflectivity,
which is at least an order of magnitude higher than the reflectivity
of all other crystals used for X-rays. Resolution achieved on a crystal
can be improved by mosaic focusing.
HOPG monochromators are usually plates of 1-2 mm thick, flat or
cylindrically bent.
