MasaFukuto:

The Complex Materials Scattering ([[CMS]], 11-BM at [[NSLS-II]]) [[beamline]] can support a wide range of sample environments. The sample chamber can be operated in ambient atmosphere (air), or under vacuum.

==Typical==

===Capillary Holder===
CMS has capillary holders that can hold 15 capillaries each. The holders are on universal (magnetic/kinematic) bases, allowing very rapid swapping between holders.

===Heated Capillary Holder===
An alternate bracket for the capillary holder allows heating of the samples. The holder can reach ~220C in vacuum, and at least 100C when operated in air.

===GISAXS Bar===
A simple bar allows multiple (~10) thin film samples on substrates to be loaded at once. Each sample can be measured by translating the setup sideways. The bars are affixed to universal bases (magnetic/kinematic), allowing rapid switching of samples.

===Heated GISAXS Bar===
The heated GISAXS bar allows multiple samples to be heated together. The holder can reach ~250C in vacuum.

==Customized==
Specialized sample environments can be created on an ad-hoc basis. Please contact beamline staff to discuss this possibility well ahead of any beamtime.

===Sample rotation===
Rotation stages can be used to align and rotate samples (e.g. for [[CDSAXS]]).

===Stretching===
As an example, the motion positioning stages can be used as a crude tensile/stretching setup:

==User Supplied==
CMS can accommodate a wide range of user-supplied sample environments. For instance, users have brought specialized heated stages, tensile/stretching stages, and customized in-situ film deposition systems.

Note that the on-axis camera (upstream), and nosecone (downstream) can be removed to make additional space inside the chamber.

==Dimensions==
Dimensions of available sample area:
* Up to 4" along the beam
* Up to 4" below the beam
* Up to 8" above the beam
* Up to 15" towards the front chamber door (outboard)
* Up to 4" towards the back chamber door (inboard)

This thread pattern is available if th/chi stage is removed.
