The ISS beamline uses a bending magnet and a toroidal Pt coated first mirror to focus the light. The monochromator has two choices of gratings (300 l/mm Ni and 600 l/mm Au). The 600 l/mm grating is in use for APXPS experiments, which works in the 350-1500 eV energy range.
The photocurrent (i0) plot is reported below (targeted measurements of i0/photon flux can be performed inside the measurement cell by a diode). It reports a measurement of i0 and the same value normalized by the quantum yield of the photodiode used (N_i0; see /media/105095 for more information).
The X07DB beamline shares design and components with the X07DA (PolLux) beamline described in the following publications:
