ABSTRACT

  This beamline, together with its sister beamline BL16XU, is a contract beamline designed and constructed by an industrial consortium of 13 companies to characterize various materials for industrial purpose. The main experiments on this beamline are XAFS, X-ray topography, X-ray imaging and X-ray diffraction. The energy range from the titanium K-edge to the thulium K-edge is covered. .

EXPERIMENTAL STATIONS

A large experimental table and a 6-axis X-ray diffractometer are installed in BL16B2 experimental hutch.

• Experimental table (Fig. 1)
  • Various measurements (XAFS, topography, X-ray imaging and others) can be carried out.
  • XAFS measurements in transmission, fluorescence and conversion electron yield modes can be available.
  • 25-element SSD can be used for low concentration elements.
  • In-situ XAFS measurement under flammable and some toxic gas condition can be carried out by using reactive gas equipment.
  • X-ray imaging measurements can be carried out with using various types of detectors such as an X-ray CCD camera, a CMOS camera and a flat panel detector.
