2. Microbeam facilities exist in all major synchrotrons.
I will discuss the capabilities of:
Spring-8
ESRF
APS
ALS
CHESS
3. Important Parameters Beam size on sample
Not necessarily equal
to the beam size at focus point.
Divergence
These terms may differ in vertical and horizontal directions.
# of photons in beam (intensity)
Divergence, beam intensity and the scattering process must be evaluated together.
Only the photons within the acceptance aperture of the process are relevant.
4. The data shown are either from the web pages or publications as of 1/2003.
The URL for each institution is referenced once at the beginning of each section.
Other data is referenced as required.
42. Summary There are quite exciting machines that are doing microbeam x-ray analysis.
This is a hot area:
ESRF now reports microbeam results as a separate category.
All have advantages and limitations.
Ease of access,
Multiple techniques with minimal set-up.
New rings are being designed with microspot beamlines.
