Description

ID09A uses monochromatic diffraction with large area detectors on single crystals and powdered samples at high pressures in diamond anvil cells. It provides variable beam sizes down to 10 x 10 micron, to study samples from a few GPa to approximately 200 GPa at ~30 keV and very high photon fluxes of ~10^13/sec. It offers state of the art optical systems for additional in situ characterisation of the samples at high pressure (Raman, etc.) and a highly developed sample environment. Recently the MAR345 online image plate reader was replaced by a MAR555 flat panel detector. Advantages of the new detector will be discussed, examples of the use of the detector in powder and single crystal diffraction will be given.
