High-energy 3rd generation synchrotron sources offer unprecedented opportunities for the characterization of materials. Undulator sources in particular provide more than four orders of magnitude higher peak brilliance than 2nd generation sources which opens new scientific possibilities for the study of small sample volumes and weak scattering. In this talk we describe the use of undulator...

A new facility for submicron x-ray diffraction and fluorescence mapping has been built on beamline 12.3.2 at the Advanced Light Source (ALS) of the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL). This beamline benefits from the hard x-radiation generated by a 6 Tesla superconducting bending magnet (4.37 Tesla at tangent point). The stronger magnetic field increases the available X-ray spectrum...
