The Imaging and Coherence Beamline I13 at Diamond
- Diamond Light Source Ltd., Chilton, Oxfordshire, OX11 0DE (United Kingdom)
The coherence and imaging beamline I13 is dedicated to hard x-ray imaging on the micro- and nano-lengthscale, performing microscopy either in direct or reciprocal space. For both, lens-based and lensless imaging, two independent stations will be operated in a separate building at a distance of 250 m from the source. The imaging branch will perform in-line phase contrast imaging and tomography over a large field of view in the 6- to 35-keV energy range. In addition, it will be possible to switch to full-field microscopy with 50-nm spatial resolution. Other microscopies will be developed according to the scientific needs. Resolution beyond the limitations given by the detector and x-ray optics will be achieved with techniques working in the far field. Coherent x-ray diffraction (CXRD) and other coherent diffraction imaging techniques such as ptychography will also be implemented on the same 'coherence' branch. The beamline hosts a number of innovative features such as the so-called 'mini-beta' layout for electron optics in the storage ring or new concepts for beamline instrumentation. The stations will be operational in 2011.
