放射光(X線)で小さなものを観察する大きな2つの施設

全散乱計測装置


装置概要

この装置はブラッグ反射と散漫散乱の同時計測、つまり全散乱計測を前提に設計されています。一度の測定で、広い逆空間レンジ(散乱ベクトルの大きさQの最大値:30 Å-1)を高精細(Qのステップ:10-3 Å-1)かつ高S/N比(検出器のダイナミックレンジ:105~106)でカバーできるため、数Åの短距離秩序から数千Åの長距離秩序までの構造情報がシームレスに得られます。

装置の特徴

実験ハッチには、一次元光子計数型検出器システム“OHGI” (Overlapped High-Grade Intelligencer)1,2)を搭載した二軸粉末回折計が常設されています。このOHGIでは、2θ=0.5°から153°までを0.01°ステップで同時にデータを測定することができます。あらかじめ実験条件(X線エネルギーと検出器のエネルギー閾値)に合わせて検出器の感度ムラを補正することで、常時、光子計数型のダイナミックレンジを最大限活用した全散乱データを提供します3)

Total Scattering Measurement System


Equipment overview

The system is designed to take total scattering measurements through simultaneous measurements of Bragg and diffuse scattering.
In one measurement, a reciprocal space (Maximum magnitude of the scattering vector, Q: 30 Å-1), high definition (Q Step: 10-3 Å-1), and high S/N ratio (Dynamic range of the detector: 105~106) can be obtained. Therefore, structural information from short-range methods of several Å to long-ranged methods of several thousand Å can be obtained seamlessly.

Features of the Equipment

The experimental hatch has a biaxial powder diffractometer permanently installed, with a one-dimensional photon counting detector system “OHGI”(Overlapped High-Grade Intelligencer)1,2) equipped.
OHGI has the ability to measure data from 2θ=0.5°to 153° in 0.01°simultaneous steps. By correcting the non-uniformity of the sensitivity of the detector according to the experimental conditions (X-ray energy and the energy threshold of the detector), full scattering data is provided that maximizes the dynamic range of the photon counting 3).

・Low-temperature Nitrogen Spraying Device (-180~200℃)
・High-temperature Nitrogen Spraying Device (Room Temperature ~ 800℃)


Experiment / sample preparation

It is recommended that the sample be brought to the experiment inside a glass capillary. The size of the capillary depends on the composition of the sample as well as the energy of the X-rays used, so please contact us in advance for all of the necessary information.


Experimental procedure / precautions

The experimental procedure is similar to the procedure for a typical powder diffraction experiment. However, the measurement time varies depending on the structural information you wish to obtain, so please consult us in advance.
