TUPH37 | A New Sealing Technology for High Precision Wide Open UHV Vacuum Flange and Waveguide Connections With Metal Gaskets | vacuum, FEL, laser, beam-diagnostic | 125 |
|
|||
The European-XFEL X-Ray laser facility is located in Hamburg. Since its commissioning in September 2017, this large X-ray laser opens new research opportunities for industrial users and scientists. For many beam diagnostic devices ultra-high vacuum components with high mechanical precision and additional strict requirements on particle cleanliness were produced. A vacuum chamber for the bunch compressor (BC) with a cross section of 400 mm*40.5 mm made of stainless steel blocks 1.4429 (316 LN) has been installed. These chambers have inte-grated flange-connections for large VATSEAL® gaskets. The tolerances for these flanges are extremely tight to ensure save vacuum tight sealing. This contribution will report of a new technology for such large rectangular or other large flange surfaces. Furthermore this contribution will compare the present with this new technology. This new technology can be used as well for other vacuum flange metals like alumini-um or titanium. Using of this technology for applications under special conditions, like particle free applications due to the non-lubricated conditions, are conceivable. | |||

THPH06 | TMO - a New Soft X-Ray Beamline at LCLS II | laser, experiment, vacuum, optics | 349 |
|
|||
LCLS is building 4 new soft X-ray beamlines with the LCLS-II upgrade. The TMO (Time resolved Molecular Optical science) beamline aka NEH 1.1 will support many ex-perimental techniques not currently available at LCLS. The beamline hinges around 2 main end stations, LAMP a multi configurable end station and DREAM, dedicated to COLTRIM type of experimentation. Both the existing LAMP as well as the newly built DREAM end-station will be configured to take full advantage of both the high per pulse energy from the copper accelerator (120 Hz) as well as high average intensity and high repetition rate (up to 100 kHz) from the superconducting accelera-tor. Each end station will have its own focusing optic systems (KB Mirrors) which can focus the beam down to 300 nm, and have laser pump probe experiments capability. Very demanding requirements for IR and X-ray overlap as well as beam stability, make the TMO beamline a major engineering challenge. The main components of the beamline (KB optics, DREAM end stations and diagnostics components) are built on granite stands. The building struc-ture is being reviewed for thermal stability. First light on TMO is expected in February 2020 | |||

THPH14 | Beam Conditioning Optics at the ALBA NCD-SWEET Beamline | optics, vacuum, focusing, alignment | 365 |
|
|||
The SAXS/WAXS Experimental End Station beamline (NCD-SWEET) at ALBA Synchrotron has undergone a major upgrade in the optics and the end station to perform state-of-the-art SAXS/WAXS experiments. In order to reduce X-ray parasitic scattering with air and maximize the photon flux at the sample, an optimized beam conditioning optics has been designed and built in the end station, integrating previously used and new components in vacuum. The beam conditioning optics includes a fast shutter, a set of commercial guard slits and a diagnostic unit com-prising three filters and a four-quadrant transmissive photodiode. In addition, a set of refractive beryllium lenses allowsμfocusing of the beam. The lens system can be removed from the beam path remotely. Finally, an on axis sample viewing system, with a novel design based on an in-vacuum camera mirror and a mica window minimizes the beam path in air up to the sample. To facilitate the alignment of the elements with respect to the beam, all the subsystems are supported by a high-stability granite table with 4 degrees of freedom and sub-micron resolution. | |||

THPH21 | DREAM - A New Soft X-ray (Dynamic REAction Microscopy) COLTRIMS Endstation at LCLS-II | laser, vacuum, optics, coupling | 382 |
|
|||
SLAC is building new soft X-ray beamlines to take advantage of the LCLS-II upgrade to 1 MHz. One of the new beamlines is called TMO (Time resolved Molecular Optical science) also known as NEH 1.1. It will be a soft X-ray beamline featuring a sub-micron X-ray focus at its second, most downstream interaction region where the DREAM COLTRIMS (COld Target Recoil Ion Momentum Spectroscopy) endstation will be situated. DREAM will feature; large magnetic coils to provide a strong uniform magnetic field through the spectrometer, rigid in-vacuum laser in- & out-coupling optics decoupled from the chamber support stand for pump-probe experiments, a multi-stage differentially pumped gas jet with catcher, insertable diagnostics, a long-distance microscope, scatter slits, a steerable gas jet, jet slits, and an adjustable stand to bias the spectrometer off-center from the interaction region. In order to achieve a spot overlap spec of 0.5 um; the KB mirrors, laser optics, & beam position diagnostics all sit on a common granite support structure to minimize mechanical vibrations and thermal drifts. An in-vacuum UHV hexapod will be utilized for fine positioning of the laser in-coupling optic. | |||

THPH32 | Dual Beam Visualizer - Intensity Monitor for Lucia Beamline at SOLEIL Synchrotron | synchrotron, photon, radiation, optics | 403 |
|
|||
LUCIA is a micro-focused beamline (0.8 - 8 keV) dedicated to X-ray fluorescence and X-ray absorption spectroscopy at SOLEIL Synchrotron.* With its recent optical upgrade and photons flux increase, the three pink-beam diagnostics of the beamline have been upgraded to support a beam reaching 1013ph/s and 20 W/mm². This paper presents the thermomechanical study and the realization of new devices adapted to the current constraints of use, making possible to both visualize the shape of the pink beam and to measure its intensity simultaneously in the same compact device. The beam is visualized by a piece of Al2O3 - Cr ceramic, soldered to a copper heat sink, whose fluorescence image is visible in visible light with a suitable camera and optical system. The measurement of the photonic intensity is made by a polarized CVD diamond used as a photosensitive element, the current reading is made by a suitable low current amplifier. The design of this dual beam visualizer and intensity monitor, made by the SOLEIL detectors group with thermomechanical studies done by the Mechanical Design Office, will be presented in details. In-lab measurements will be also presented.

FROAMA05 | Engineering Design and Commissioning Performance of the ESM and Six Soft X-Ray Beamlines at NSLS-II | photon, optics, MMI, electron | 435 |
|
|||
Two of the five NSLS-II Experimental Tools (NEXT) project insertion-device beamlines developed for the NSLS-II facility at Brookhaven National Laboratory are state-of-the-art soft X-ray beamlines covering the 15 eV- 1500 eV photon energy range. The engineering challenges of these two beamlines included: accurate and realistic optical simulations, nearly perfect optic figure and mechanical/thermal implementation, and advanced diagnostics systems developed in-house. The measured performance (flux, spot size, resolution) of these two beamlines closely matches the calculated values. Here, the engineering design and performance measurements of these two beamlines are presented. | |||
