A cavity-based x-ray free-electron laser (CBXFEL) is a possible future direction in the development of fully coherent x-ray sources. One of the challenges of a CBXFEL is the requirement of the three-dimensional overlapping of the μm-sized electron beam with the circulating μm-sized x-ray beam in an x-ray cavity of tens or hundreds of meters long. In the framework of the CBXFEL R&D collaborative project of Argonne National Laboratory, SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, and Spring-8, we present here the development of an x-ray diagnostics system for an accurate alignment of x-ray beams in the CBXFEL cavity. All the designed diagnostics components have been fully characterized at the Advanced Photon Source to demonstrate a sub-μrad-angular and μm-spatial alignment accuracy for the CBXFEL cavity.
