Hard X-ray MicroAnalysis

Overview

The Hard X-ray Micro-Analysis (HXMA) beamline at CLS 06ID-1 is a multipurpose hard X-ray beamline, based on a 63 pole superconducting wiggler. HXMA has been designed to provide the community with XAFS.

In addition to the standard ionization chamber and Lytle detectors, a single element and 4 elements Vortex silicon drift detector and a 30 element Ge detector are available.

Optics

The primary beamline optics include a 1.2 m water-cooled silicon collimating mirror (seperate Rh and Pt coating stripes), a liquid nitrogren cooled double crystal monochromator (Kohzu CMJ-1) housing two crystal pairs [Si (111) and Si (220)], and a 1.15 m long water-cooled silicon toroidal focusing mirror (separate Rh and Pt coating stripes). These mirrors are equipped with dynamical meridian benders. 
 

HXMA Endstations and Capabilities

  • X-ray Absorption Fine Structure (XAFS): ionization chamber detectors and fluorescence detectors (i.e., Lytle, 4 element vortex, and 30 element Ge detector) for standard transmission and fluorescence mode EXAFS; cryostats for variable temperature sample environment (10 K - 300 K)
