SuperXAS - X10DA

X10DA is a dedicated beamline for time resolved X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) and X-ray emission spectroscopy (XES)


Main features:
  • Fixed exit double crystal monochromator (DCM) for normal XAFS scanning mode (13 element Ge detector)
  • Quick scanning channel cut monochromator (QEXAFS) (time resolution: few ms to s)
  • Fast scanning mode for DCM (time resolution: s to min)
  • Multi crystal (5) spectrometer for medium resolved (1 eV) emission spectroscopy (XES; RIXS; HERFD)

Energy range 4.5 - 35 keV
Flux on sample 1 x 1012 ph/s/400 mA
Spot size on sample± 100 x 100 µm2 to 5 x 0.5 mm2
Intrinsic energy resolution (ΔE/E) 2.0 x 10-4 for Si(111)
0.5 x 10-4 for Si(311)
