Key technologies in synchrotron radiation beamline are described with examples of x-ray beamlines of 8-GeV electron storage ring SPring-8. Typical components at a front-end and a transport channel are shown for understanding of their functions to tailor the SR x-rays for various applications. A total reflection mirror and a crystal monochromator are shown as major optics in the x-ray beamline as well as components such as beam shutter, slit, and windows.
