Beamline Layout

General Beamline Layout

ID32 beamline is organised into two optical hutches and two experimental hutches, allowing users to work on three different setups: a diffractometer and two UHV chamber for XPS.

Other facilities are available for sample preparation, e.g. a small chemistry lab on the beamline. ID32 is closely associated with the SCL (Surface Characterisation Lab) and ECL (Electrochemistry Lab).

Layout of the Optics Hutch 1 (OH1)

The first optics hutch contains mainly the monochromator for beam energy selection and sets of Compound Refractive Lenses for beam focusing.

Layout of the Optics Hutch 2 (OH2)

In the second optical hutch the beam can go through a channel-cut post-monochromators setting for further energy resolution enhancement. A mirror at the end of the hutch helps cutting the higher energy harmonics for diffraction experiments.

Layout of the Experimental Hutch 1 (EH1)

Diffraction experiments take place in EH1 in Huber Tower or Kappa circle geometry. Ionization chambers, pre-sample slits and a feedback system allow to stabilize the beam during experiments.

Layout of the Experimental Hutch 2 (EH2)

For UHV experiments a flight tube is set in EH1 and the beam is kept in UHV conditions from the synchrotron ring to the HAXPES UHV-chamber.
