BL03XU OUTLINE

Inquiry number

INS-0000001574

ABSTRACT

 The principal aim of the advanced soft material beam line (BL03XU) is clearly hierarchical structures about soft or polymer materials using X-ray scattering measurement method. The BL03XU beamline has been constructed by an industry-academic consortium consisting of 19 research groups.

AREA OF RESEARCH

 Research targets are organic electronics materials, display materials, solar cell/fuel cell power generation materials, coating materials, automobile materials, aerospace materials, architectural materials, commodity plastics, medical plastics and others. We also conduct time-resolved measurements under a dynamic environment to determine melting state and destruction state of the above materials.

Method of measurement

  • Grazing-incidence small-angle X-ray scattering (GI-SAXS)
  • Grazing-incidence wide-angle X-ray diffraction (GI-WAXD)
  • X-ray diffraction (XRD)
  • X-ray reflection (XR)
  • Wide- and small-angle X-ray scattering (WAXS and SAXS)
  • Micro-beam WAXS and SAXS
  • Ultra small-angle X-ray scattering (USAXS)
  • Time-resolved SAXS and WAXS measurement

INSTRUMENTS

  • Vacuum pipe and beamstop chamber for GI-SAXS and SAXS
  • Fume hood in experimental hutch
  • Fume hood in side room
  • Large optical table (3m x 3m x 4m) and equipment hutch for large machine
  • Pilatus3 1M, Flat Panel Detector, X-ray Image Intensifier+CCD (XRII+CCD), R-AXIS IV++, R-AXIS VII, Beam Monitor, YAP (Ce) scintillation counter
