Available Synchrotron Beamlines

Beamline Facility Status Description Techniques Energy range q-range Access
X9 NSLS at BNL Running until Sept. 2014 X9 is an undulator-based (high-flux) and high-resolution beamline that can perform transmission and grazing-incidence scattering across a wide q-range (simultaneous SAXS/WAXS possible). Typical beam size is 150 µm for TSAXS and 50 µm for GISAXS (focus to ~15 µm is possible). Measurements in air or vaccum are possible. Sample environments for performing in-situ sample heating (RT-220°C for GISAXS, RT-80°C for TSAXS) are available. Accomodations for in-situ experiments (solvent annealing, electrochemical cells) are also possible. Contact Lin Yang, Masa Fukuto, or Kevin Yager for details. SAXS, WAXS, GISAXS, GIWAXS 6 keV to 20 keV 0.002 Å−1 to 4.2 Å−1 Through NSLS or CFN user programs. (No longer accepting proposals.)
7.3.3 ALS at LBNL Running 7.3.3 is a SAXS/WAXS/GISAXS/GIWAXS beamline, covering a wide q range (0.004 - 2.5 Å−1) and length scale (2.5 - 1500 angstrom). See more details at ALS website. New users, please contact Alex Hexemer, Eric Schaible, or Chenhui Zhu for details. SAXS, WAXS, GISAXS, GIWAXS 10 keV 0.004 Å−1 to 2 Å−1 General user program. Rapid access is also available.

Available Labscale Instruments

Instrument Facility Status Description Techniques Energy range q-range Access
Bruker Nanostar CFN at BNL Running This labscale rotating-anode instrument is available to users. Of course a labscale instrument will not have the flux or resolution of a synchrotron beamline; nevertheless this instrument is optimized for resolution, while providing sufficient flux for measuring strongly scattering systems (e.g. nanoparticles). The sample environment is under vacuum, and offers both transmission-mode and grazing-incidence stages. Contact Dmytro Nykypanchuk or Kevin Yager for details. SAXS, WAXS, GISAXS, GIWAXS 8.04 keV 0.005 Å−1 to 0.3 Å−1 (up to ~2 Å−1 using image plate). Available through CFN user program.

Future Synchrotron Beamlines

Beamline Facility Status Description Techniques Energy range q-range Access
CMS NSLS-II at BNL Under construction. CMS is an bending-magnet beamline being constructed at NSLS-II, based in part on the design and hardware at X9 (NSLS). The beamline will be able to perform transmission and grazing-incidence scattering across a wide q-range (simultaneous SAXS/WAXS possible), and will emphasize automation, high-throughput, and in-situ measurements. Contact Masa Fukuto, or Kevin Yager for details. SAXS, WAXS, GISAXS, GIWAXS 10 keV to 17 keV 0.002 Å−1 to 4.2 Å−1 Will be available through NSLS-II user program.
SMI NSLS-II at BNL Under construction. SMI is a undulator-based beamline being constructed at NSLS-II. SMI will be a high-flux and high-resolution instrument optimized for grazing-incidence measurements on interfaces, though also capable of performing world-class transmission scattering experiments. Elaine DiMasi, Mikhail Zhernenkov, or Kevin Yager for details. SAXS, WAXS, GISAXS, GIWAXS, XR ~2 keV to 24 keV Very wide q-range (SAXS and WAXS). Will be available through NSLS-II user program.
