Figure 7

Averaged specific Bragg-plane slope errors $[\langle \sigma _{\theta}^* \rangle]$ in the diamond crystal with strain-relief cuts after laser cutting (green), after MTA annealing (red) and after clamping (blue), evaluated as a function of the area-detector binning number N and compared with the reference silicon crystal values. The averaging is performed over either (a) the top six or (b) the top four of the eight equal-sized 1 mm × 1 mm ROIs indicated in Figs. 6
