Figure 4.2.5.6
A schematic diagram of a Hart-type tuneable channel-cut monochromator is shown. The monochromator is cut from a single piece of silicon. The reflecting surfaces lie parallel to the (111) planes. Cuts are made in the crystal block so as to form a lazy hinge, and the second wafer of the monochromator is able to be deflected by a force generated by a current in an electromagnet acting on an iron disc glued to the upper surface of the wafer. Cooling of the primary crystal of the monochromator is by a jet of water falling on the underside of the wafer. This type of system can tolerate incident-beam powers of 500 W mm−2 without significant change to the width of the reflectivity curve. |
