A versatile instrument capable of high resolution X-ray optics characterization has been implemented at the ESRF. The Micro-Optics Test Bench (MOTB) is installed in EH2 of BM5 and is located 55 meters from the tangent point of a dipole magnet. Substantial gain has been demonstrated in the characterization of microfocusing and imaging optical elements, including diffractive, refractive and reflective optics.
