Standard Capabilities:

1. Reflectivity and Grazing Incident X-ray measurements (8-25KeV, typically)
   • Reflectivity measures surface normal density profile
   • GIXD measures the in-plane structure
2. Large angular range
   • Required for ultra high resolution, analyzer, anomalous
3. Precise tracking
   • Required for liquid metal measurements
4. Two detector set-up (Bicron and PSD with soller slits)
   • Allows easy switch between different measurements
   • Heavy Sample chambers (UHV), weights up to 250 LB
5. Very bright beam, well focused in vertical and horizontal
6. Optimized motion control for fast operations

Some Recent Capabilities:

1. Si (111) asymmetric crystal was designed and commissioned for l=1.3 Å (E=9.54KeV) to defocus the incoming beam horizontally (10-fold) to avoid beam damage and improve sample statistics
2. Ge (111) asymmetric crystal was designed and commissioned to overcome tracking problems at high energies (~25KeV)
3. Two dimensional detector (Bruker CCD) now can be mounted for in-plane GIXD measurements
4. Oxygen sensor was installed to control the oxygen level in the trough
