32-ID-B,C: Full Field Imaging & Transmission X-ray Microscopy
GeoScience, Life Sciences, Materials Science
32-ID supports three main techniques: monochromatic full-field imaging, white beam (High-Speed) full-field imaging/diffraction (HSID), and transmission x-ray microscopy (TXM). There are two experimental stations, 32-ID-B at ~37 m from the source and 32-ID-C at ~70 m from the source. Both stations are capable of white or monochromatic beams. The TXM is housed in 32-ID-B while HSID and general monochromatic dynamic full-field imaging is in 32-ID-C. Phase and/or absorption contrasts are available for all techniques. Beamline optics consists of a Kohzu cryo-cooled double-crystal monochromator (Si(111)) in the FOE. 32-ID has two undulators: a U28 for general broad-band spectrum usage; and a U13.5 providing a quasi-single line spectrum at 24.5 keV for (ultrafast) imaging and diffraction work.

Many sample platforms are available for general users, including a small gas gun, a Kolsky bar (tension and compression), and an additive manufacturing simulator (vacuum chamber, with a 500W IR laser and a scanner). Please contact any one of the beamline staff for more information.
TXM (8-17 keV), sub-50 nm resolution.
Phase/absorption nano tomography
White beam high speed imaging (sub-microsecond to 100 ps single pulse exposures)
Phase/absorption real time imaging (single-line/monochromatic)
Quasi Single line beam (@ ~ 24 keV) from a short period undulator (U13.5) for high speed diffraction (or imaging)
The beamline is run using Linux Workstations (Red Hat). Tomographic data analysis is performed using TomoPy (http://www.aps.anl.gov/tomopy/), an open source Python toolbox developed by the APS Imaging Group to perform tomographic data processing and image reconstruction tasks. Beamline control is done though VME crates and EPICS.
