13ID-D
The DAC setup at 13ID-D is designed
for x-ray diffraction experiments at extreme P-T conditions. Some x-ray
spectroscopic measurements (absorption, emission, x-ray Raman) are possible with
reasonable setup time (1-2 days). Check the specifications and capabilities below. Click

laser heating system

Main features of the YLF
laser heating system at 13ID-D:
* In situ x-ray diffraction (and some other x-ray
measurements) can be performed at high pressures and high temperatures.
* The heating area is about 20-30 microns in diameter and
from both sides; while the x-ray beam size is about 5-8 microns in dimension.
* The system consists of two lasers
with one operating in donut mode and the other in Gaussian mode.
* The maximum powers of the donut laser is 80 W; the Gaussian
laser is 65 W.
* The two lasers are combined first and split into two
branches to heat a DAC sample from both sides.
* The power of each laser can be regulated; the power
distribution to two sides can be changed.
* A feedback system operates in two modes: constant
laser-power mode or constant temperature (thermal intensity) mode.
* Temperatures can be measured simultaneously from both
sides.
* Sensitive CCD cameras often allow to visually see x-ray luminescence
signals, an important step for alignment.
* All controls and operations can be made outside hutch.
