Abstract

Further development of a focusing monochromator concept for X-ray energy resolution of 0.1 meV and below is presented. Theoretical analysis of several optical layouts based on this concept was supported by numerical simulations performed in the “Synchrotron Radiation Workshop” software package using the physical-optics approach and careful modeling of partially-coherent synchrotron (undulator) radiation. Along with the energy resolution, the spectral shape of the energy resolution function was investigated. We show that under certain conditions the decay of the resolution function tails can be faster than that of the Gaussian function.

Back-scattering channel-cut high-resolution monochromator for inelastic x-ray scattering

Conference Kushnir, V I ; Abbamonte, P M ; Macrander, A T ; ...

We report on a design and on some experimental results for the performance of a new high energy resolution monochromator. It is a large channel-cut Si crystal with a 197 mm separation between the two faces designed to operate in a near-backscattering regime. The device was tested as a second monochromator on Sector 3 of the Synchrotron Radiation Instrumentation Collaborative Access Team (SRI-CAT) at the Advanced Photon Source using the Si(777) reflection at a photon energy of 13.84 keV. The same monochromator can be used for other energies with reflections of the type (hhh). Special care has been taken tomore »« less

Plane gratings for high-resolution grazing-incidence monochromators: holographic grating versus mechanically ruled varied-line-spacing grating

Journal Article Koike, Masato - Applied Optics

Comparative studies have been made on the holographic plane grating and the ruled varied-line-spacing (VLS) plane grating designed for two kinds of objective Monk{endash}Gillieson type high-resolution grazing incidence monochromator, I and II. The ray-traced performance of monochromator types I and II on a synchrotron radiation beam line was evaluated in terms of resolving power and spectral purity by the introduction of new concepts of effective Gaussian line and purity profiles. The resolving power defined on the basis of the effective Gaussian profile is consistent with the spectral purity of the beam emerging from the exit slit and is more realisticmore »« less

Partially coherent wavefront propagation simulations: Mirror and monochromator crystal quality assessment

Journal Article Wiegart, L., E-mail: lwiegart@bnl.gov ; Fluerasu, A. ; Chubar, O. ; ... - AIP Conference Proceedings

We have applied fully-and partially-coherent synchrotron radiation wavefront propagation simulations, implemented in the “Synchrotron Radiation Workshop” (SRW) computer code, to analyse the effects of imperfect mirrors and monochromator at the Coherent Hard X-ray beamline. This beamline is designed for X-ray Photon Correlation Spectroscopy, a technique that heavily relies on the partial coherence of the X-ray beam and benefits from a careful preservation of the X-ray wavefront. We present simulations and a comparison with the measured beam profile at the sample position, which show the impact of imperfect optics on the wavefront.

Preliminary results from a new plane grating monochromator at SRC

Journal Article Severson, Mary ; Bissen, Mark ; Reininger, Ruben ; ... - AIP Conference Proceedings

A plane grating monochromator (PGM) has recently been completed and installed on an undulator port at the Synchrotron Radiation Center (SRC). The beamline is designed to be a high resolution, high throughput beamline with an energy range of 8 to 245 eV. Initial results show the undulator is performing very well and agreeing closely with theoretical predictions. The undulator and monochromator can be scanned together throughout the energy range using software on the beamline computer. Undulator scans are routinely performed during the morning shift and the small effects this induces on the storage ring are being further minimized. Monochromator scanningmore »« less

Quick-scanning x-ray absorption spectroscopy system with a servo-motor-driven channel-cut monochromator with a temporal resolution of 10 ms

Journal Article Nonaka, T. ; Dohmae, K. ; Araki, T. ; ... - Review of Scientific Instruments

We have developed a quick-scanning x-ray absorption fine structure (QXAFS) system and installed it at the recently constructed synchrotron radiation beamline BL33XU at the SPring-8. Rapid acquisition of high-quality QXAFS data was realized by combining a servo-motor-driven Si channel-cut monochromator with a tapered undulator. Two tandemly aligned monochromators with channel-cut Si(111) and Si(220) crystals covered energy ranges of 4.0-28.2 keV and 6.6-46.0 keV, respectively. The system allows the users to adjust instantly the energy ranges of scans, the starting angles of oscillations, and the frequencies. The channel-cut crystals are cooled with liquid nitrogen to enable them to withstand the highmore »« less
