Description
Working with high-energy x-rays offers some advantages in the study of bulk electro-mechanical materials. The Transmission Geometry system is ideally suited for use at high-energy synchrotron x-ray beamlines or lab sources with higher energy targets such as Ag or Mo. Precise polarization and strain measurements can be obtained in-situ at voltages up to ±7.5 kV.
Specifications
- Suitable for higher energy x-ray sources commonly available at synchrotron facilities or in Ag or Mo laboratory systems.
- Mechanical strain and electrical polarisation measurements in situ.
- Applied voltages ±7.5 kV
- The recommended amplifier is the Trek 10/10B-HS, although custom cabling for alternative amplifiers can be provided upon request.
- Silicon oil bath for achieving high fields.
- Sample dimensions of up to 4 x 4 x 10 mm. Optimal sample sizes depend on x-ray beam energy and geometry. Silicon bath options for ceramic or single crystal measurements.
- Temperature range from room temperature to 200°C.
- Large scattering angle range in two tilt directions, allowing for advanced techniques such as:
- High-q scattering for Pair Distribution Function analysis of materials
- Large volume reciprocal space mapping on single crystals
- Compact system design for maximum portability and versatility.
- Interlock system for voltage application only when cell is closed.
