K4.6 - Station for X-ray crystallography and materials science (XCMS)

The station is dedicated for precision X-ray diffraction and topography studies in the field of materials science.

Methods: three-crystal diffractometry, dispersion-free plane-wave topography, three-crystal topography, sample deformation mapping, etc.

Systems under investigations: structural defects (dislocations, microdefects, second phase inclusions), heterogeneity of foreign atoms distribution, small local deformations of lattice, size and misorientation of crystal blocks, parameters of heteroepitaxial structures, structural changes in real-time scale, etc.

Parameters

Spectrometer:
Sample diameterup to 100 mm
Horizontal displacement of M3 crystal (along beam line)700 mm
Vertical displacement of SM1 and SM2 crystals (from the level of beam), range400 mm
Crystals rotation:
Range360°
Error1,2 minutes of arc
Step size2 seconds of arc
Monochromator:
Bragg angle5°–80°

The vacuum double-crystal monochromator provides beam energy range from 3 to 40 keV and possibility for continuous scanning through energy interval from 1 to 2 keV.

The goniometer with three independent units allows to form the beam with necessary angular and spectral divergence.
