The SOLABS beamline is available for the first time in the spring call for proposals.
In January 2022 start of commissioning and operation with the first group of ´friendly users´ (already experienced in X-ray absorption spectroscopy and willing to tolerate occasional complications of a beamline not fully commissioned yet) took place. Commissioning and development of the beamline are now in progress. Nevertheless, the beamline will be opened for the Spring 2022 Call for proposals, giving interested users the possibility to apply for XAS measurements only in transmission mode at room temperature in the energy range 1.82 – 12 keV, covering K absorption edges of chemical elements between Si and Zn, L edges between Rb and Pt and M edges between Gd and U. We encourage our users to apply in this call mostly for experiments at K absorption edges, however, applications for measurements at L and M edges are also welcomed. The beamline staff work hardly to implement fluorescence and TEY modes for our users ASAP.
The SOLABS beamline was especially designed for XANES/EXAFS measurements in the tender X-ray range, i.e., at the K absorption edges of important elements such as P, S, Si, Al and Mg. Besides, SOLABS` energy range also includes K-edges of heavier elements up to Se, L-edges of elements up to Bi and some M-edges of elements including U, which allows investigation of a variety of highly relevant materials.
