The efficiency of X-ray diffraction from reflection gratings has been investigated experimentally using a gold-coated plane grating of 25 x 120 mm with a nominal blaze angle of 21 deg in a conical diffraction mount. Results show that conical diffraction is capable of producing very high dispersion efficiencies. The peak of first order at 13.3 A is 40%; at 44 A, the peak is 34%. The most immediate application of this result is to X-ray astronomy where sources are weak.
