P495 – SGM ATHOS FURKA Swiss FEL PSI

This grating unit was developed and built to be integrated into the RIXS system for ATHOS beamline at SwissFEL of Paul Scherrer Institut. The challenge was to accomodate all components for standard functionality and for compensation of spectrometer related spurious movements into a very limited space, without perfomance lost.

P470 – hRIXS Spectrometer SCS European XFEL

The hRIXS for the SCS beamline had to be developed as a mobile instrument regardless of its size and stability requirements to allow for the use of different experimental stations at the beamline. The optical design without beam focusing or collimation in the non-dispersive direction required large diameter bellows between the grating and the detector module and thereby an appropriate…

P469 – Soft X-ray diffractometer SCS European XFEL

This soft X-ray diffractometer also serves as a low-temperature sample station for the hRIXS at the SCS beamline at the European XFEL. A triple rotating flange system is integrated into the vacuum chamber allowing for variation of the angle of the scattered radiation from the sample, which is analyzed in the hRIXS. Alignment and sample transfer can be controlled remotely,…

P470 – SGM SCS European XFEL

This grating unit was developed and built to be integrated into the high energy resolution hRIXS system at SCS instrument of the European XFEL. The challenge was to accomodate all components for standard functionality and for compensation of spectrometer related spurious movements into a very limited space, without perfomance lost.

P470 – Experimental station SCS European XFEL

This very compact experimental station was designed for near ambient pressure operation at the SCS beamline of the European XFEL. A short differential pumping unit had to account for a pressure factor of 106. Alignment can be controlled remotely, considering access and space constrains at the installation site.

P435 – Mirror Unit SXR XFEL PAL

This mirror unit for the soft X-ray beamline at the Korean XFEL features a cardanic mount to realize the required degrees of freedom. B4C beam blocking provisions are integrated in the system.

P432 – VLS-PGM SXR XFEL PAL

This monochromator is an optimized version of the first monochromator installed at the SXR beamline at SLAC (see project P308). The required grazing incidence at XFEL beamlines implies a large distance between pre-mirror and grating, which explains the stadium-shaped footprint of the vacuum chamber.

P436 – Mirror Unit SXR XFEL PAL

This mirror unit for the soft X-ray beamline at the Korean XFEL features a cardanic mount to realize the required degrees of freedom. B4C beam blocking provisions are integrated in the system.

P308 – VLS-PGM SXR LCLS SLAC

This monochromator was the first soft X-ray monochomator delivered to the world's first X-ray free-electron laser at LCLS at SLAC.

P309 – Exit Slit Unit SXR LCLS SLAC

Exit slit unit for soft X-ray FEL radiation. Delivered in 2010 for Soft X-ray beamline at LCLS, Stanford Linear accelerator Center, USA
