Abstract

We present initial novel coating design for ATHENA. We make use of both simple bilayer coatings of Ir and B₄C and more complex constant period multilayer coatings to enhance the effective area and cover the energy range from 0.1 to 10 keV. We also present the coating technology used for these designs and present test results from coatings.
