  1. X-ray Correlation Spectroscopy Instrument Aymeric Robert – XCS Instrument Scientist LCLS Facilities Advisory Committee Meeting June 17, 2008 Team Leaders : Brian Stephenson Gerhard Grübel Karl Ludwig Lead Engineer: Eric Bong

  2. X-ray Photon Correlation Spectroscopy Coherent X-rays Coherent Scattering i.e. Speckles • Characterizing the time fluctuations of speckle patterns • (scattering patterns produced by the coherent illumination of the sample) • Characterizing the underlying dynamics of the system

  3. XCS Science : the mystery of the XPCS area XPCS in Grazing Incidence 2D-XPCS with CCD 1D-XPCS with autocorrelator

  4. X-ray Photon Correlation Spectroscopy • XPCS is a “photon hungry “ technique ! • Limited by : • coherent flux • degree of coherence • detector performances • beam damages

  5. High Time–average Brilliance Rep. Rate 120 Hz Sequential Mode XCS Science @ LCLS LCLS Parameters Full Transverse Coherence 8 and 24 keV Dedicated 2D-Detector

  8. Peak Brilliance & Pulse Duration • pulse duration < tC< several ns • Large Q’s accessible Ultrafast XCS : Split & Delay

  9. FAC report Oct 07 4.2.5. XCS Instrument Aymeric Robert described the progress on designing the x-ray correlation spectroscopy (XCS) instrument. The design of this instrument is relatively mature since it builds on existing successful programs at third-generation synchrotron facilities and is scheduled to be the last commissioned. The greatest uncertainties revolve around the split and delay, x-ray monochromator and the x-ray detector. An MoU as been entered into with DESY to develop this system and a first instrument has been tested on the Troika beamline at ESRF. This instrument will need to be extended to operate at a variety of photon energies. The detector is anticipated to be a pixel array detector being developed at Brookhaven National Laboratory. The development of this detector appears to have appropriate progress. The committee recommends that the XCS staff retain flexibility in their designs to facilitate change as opportunities and problems are discovered.

  10. XCS Instrument Schedule Instrument will operate in the 6-25 keV photon energy range JULY 2008

  14. XCS Monochromator • Same design constrains than the XPP Monochromator, except that the stability requirements are larger • Thin/transmissive crystals situation still unclear in terms of availability/performance and coherence preservation. • The temporary use of a “ conventional (small offset)” non-monolithic channel-cut monochromator is investigated, while designing the large offset monochromator.

  15. G. Grübel W. Roseker Split & Delay Unit • Provided by DESY/SLAC MoU • Prototype existing • 1st Commissioning May 07 (ESRF, Troika beamline) • pulse duration < delay < 3 ns • based on Si(511) • E=8.389 keV • Last commissioning May 08 • PhD Examination June 08 There is still the need for the development of the next generation of split & delay ( in vacuum/tunable wavelength), but not in the scope of XCS

  16. 4-circle diffractometer with local detector Massive granite base-plate for stability and vibration purpose HED CXI Restriction to nearly horizontal scattering plane Airpads to get out of the beam path with clear floor area • Standard 4-circle: • θ-rotation • local 2θ-arm • tilts (χ,φ) • translation (X,Y,Z) J.Delor • Compatibility with sample environments • SAXS chamber • Goniometer head • Low-T cryostat • High-T furnace • Others…

  25. Summary • Monochromator : potential use of a temporary non-monolithic channel cut while designing and building the large offset one (tbd). • Diffractometer design allowing flexibility for accommodating very large sample environments/devices • WAXS detector stage flexible design : • APS/HERIX based design • pseudo rotation control by software • Multiple COR positions possible • separated from the diffractometer ( no point of rotation),\ • based on 2-long translations
