  • We present novel, ultra-thin, large-diameter silicon nitride windows for various soft X-ray applications. Together with the company NORCADA, we developed windows with 200 nm and 300 nm thickness withstanding pressure differences above 1 bar. The windows have an open diameter of 14 mm. They were intensively vacuum- and overpressure-tested, showing very good results. At a measurement campaign at the synchrotron radiation source SOLEIL in France, the transparency of the windows was measured over a range from 50 eV to 15 keV, giving results comparable with the expected transparencies.
