Photodiodes
The experimental chamber is equipped with 4 silicon diodes for light detection. All diodes are mounted on a aluminum frame placed on the PhiA analyzer frame, at 160 mm from the chamber center. These detectors are all at 160 mm from the chamber center. 3 diodes are SXUV-100 model and one is AXUV-100G for absolute intensity measurements. Moreover, there is also an absolute diode AXUV-300 mounted on the monitor chamber for I0. The following table summarizes the main properties of the detectors:
model | distance from center (mm) | mask size (mm2) V X H | Acceptance (H x V) deg2 | Group/connection | Direct beam position |
sxuv100 | 160 mm | 8 x 8 | 7.6 x 7.6 | A 2 | ThetaA -50 PhiA 0 |
sxuv100 | 160 mm | 8 x 0.5 | 7.6 x 0.5 | B 1 | ThetaA -119.6 PhiA +2 |
axuv100 | 160 mm | 8 x 8 | 7.6 x 7.6 | A 1 | ThetaA -129.6 PhiA -2.5 |
sxuv100 | 160 mm | 8 x 8 | 7.6 x 7.6 | B 2 | ThetaA -59.4 PhiA +2 |
axuv300 | monitor chamber | 20 x 20 | ------------ | A 3 | --------------------------- |
The diodes are connected through a DN63CF 8-ways feedthrough placed near the phiA motor.
