Beamline 34-ID-C: Microdiffraction, Coherent X-ray Scattering

X-ray Science Division, APS
Materials Science, Physics

Description

At the station C, the facility provides coherent x-ray scattering technique to a diverse scientific community. The experiments exploit the APS source brilliance to study fundamental materials structures using dedicated coherent x-ray scattering microscopy.    

At the station E, the facility provides microbeam diffraction technique to a diverse scientific community. The experiments exploit the APS source brilliance to study fundamental materials structures and deformation processes using dedicated x-ray microbeam diffraction microscopy.
