SAXS/WAXS Beamline

SAXS/WAXS Beamline

The SAXS/WAXS beamline is a flexible X-ray scattering facility due to the design of the optics, and a highly adaptable endstation and sample stage. The primary roles of the beamline are 2D SAXS and WAXS in transmission or grazing-incidence geometry using a large area in-vacuum Pilatus3 2M detector. A flexible sample stage is used to support many sample types of in-air or in-vacuum sample environments, either provided by the beamline or you can set up your own. The vertical focusing mirror bounces the beam down allowing grazing incidence measurement on solid/gas or solid/liquid interfaces.
