Description: Designed for complmentary performance to the existing CMCF 08ID-1 bealmine, the 08B1 beamline will be used for screening crystals and for high-throughput crystallographic analysis of well-ordered crystals. The design incorporates white beam slits (WBS), a double crystal monochromator (DCM) with an indirectly water-cooled first crystal, and toroidal focusing mirror. The endstation includes a versatile ACCEL MD2 microdiffractometer and Marmosaic CCD300 X-ray detector. The beamline controls are operated through the same Blu-Ice style user interface used by CMCF1.

Endstation(s):

  • Automounter
  • Oxford Instruments Cryojet
  • Marmosaic CCD300
  • ACCEL MD2 Microdiffractometer

Techniques:

  • X-ray diffraction
  • Multiwavelength Anomalous Dispersion (MAD)

Optics:

  • Vertical collimating mirror
  • DCM with indirectly water-cooled first crystal
  • Toroidal focusing mirror
