Description

This project aims to develop an automated system for real-time characterization of water flat-jets using MATLAB or LabVIEW. The goal is to create a user-friendly graphical user interface (GUI) that allows for one-click characterization, enabling efficient and accurate measurements of flat-jet dimensions (250 x 500 µm2 area and sub-µm thickness) from laser interference fringe patterns during experimental campaigns. The project will integrate the GUI with the experimental setup for real-time analysis, tested under vacuum conditions, to optimize the system for accuracy and reliability. The outcome of the project will include a fully functional GUI for automated vacuum running flat-jet characterization during beamtime at the X-ray Free-Electron Laser. Currently, we have the capability to measure the flat-jet thickness using phase shift data from an interferometer using MATLAB programing software. The existing diagnostics software package is needed to be further developed.
