ABSTRACT

BL16XU is a beamline that uses an undulator as a light source. High-brightness X-rays are available over a wide photon energy range from 6 to 72 keV. A versatile 6-axis X-ray diffractometer manufactured by HUBER is installed inside the experimental hutch and is available for shared use. This diffractometer has been developed to meet the diverse needs of academic and industrial users for analysis using X-ray diffraction and scattering techniques. Its applications are wide-ranging, including structural analysis of thin films, bulk materials, and practical materials, as well as residual strain analysis and various types of in-situ X-ray diffraction.

SOURCE AND OPTICS

The light source is an in-vacuum liner undulator with a period length of 40 mm and 112 periods. X-rays in the photon energy range from 6 keV to 72 keV can be used by employing a double-crystal monochromator with switchable Si(111) or Si(311) reflections. Downstream of the monochromator, a vertically deflecting bent cylindrical mirror is installed, enabling both harmonic suppression and vertical/horizontal focusing.
