Owner/Operator | ESRF Strctural Biology Group |
Status | operational |
Experiments | MAD, SAD, FLUORESCENCE |
Special Capabilities | Absorption Edges, High Intensity |
Special Capabilities Details | ID29 is intended for high intensity, high energy resolution MAD and SAD measurements over a wide range of X-ray wavelengths. |
Source Type | INSERTION DEVICE |
Source Details | two complementary undulator sources - a standard U35 and an in vacuum U21 |
Spot Size (mm): Height | 0.03 |
Spot Size (mm): Width | 0.05 |
Monochromator | liquid nitrogen cooled channel-cut silicon monochromator |
Optics Details | Due to geometry of the channel-cut crystal, the Si(311) monochromator can only be used at energies higher than 9.6 keV. |
Crystal Type | Si(111) and Si (311) |
Mirrors | cylindrical grazing incidence mirror bent to approximate to a toroidal curvature |
Flux(PHOTONS/SEC) | 1 x 10^13 |
Flux Details | |
Wavelength Range (Å) | 0.62 - 2.1 |
Energy Range (keV) | 6 - 20 |
Goniometer | MD2 Microdiffractometer |
Goniometer Details | Minikappa goniometer - beam is conditioned by 5 different beam defining apertures - 10 20 30 50 75 um |
Sample Handling: Robotics | EMBL Grenoble Sample Changer (SC3) |
Robotics: More Info | The Sample Changer has been designed for use with SPINE standard sample holders and vials, which are loaded into the SC in baskets specifically designed for the SCs. The goniometer head that must be used in conjunction with the SCs is equipped with a SmartMagnet. This detects whether a sample is mounted on the goniometer head or not. Each indivudual SmartMagnet is tuned for operation on a particular beam-line and a goniometer head must NOT be taken from one beam-line for use on another. |
