The Brockhouse Sector consists of 3 hard X-ray beamlines dedicated to diffraction and scattering techniques. We have an in-vacuum wiggler and an in-vacuum undulator in the sector 4 straight section of the 2.9 GeV Canadian Light Source. The wiggler is the source for two beamlines,
Wiggler Low Energy (WLE)
Wiggler High Energy (WHE)
while the undulator feeds one beamline,
| WLE Beamline | WHE Beamline | IVU Beamline | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Energy range: | 7 - 22 keV | 25 - 90 keV | 5 - 24 keV |
| Flux: | 10¹² photons/s with Si(111), or 10¹¹ photons/s with Si(311) | 5x10¹¹ photons/s @ 60 keV using Si (422) | 10¹¹ to 10¹³ photons/s |
| Beam size, FWHM: | 150 μm V × 500 μm H | 19 μm V x 2.23 mm H | 200μm H x 50-300μm V |
| Energy resolution, ΔE/E: | 2.5 – 6.4 × 10⁻⁴ | 1.7x10⁻³ @ 60 keV using Si (422) | 3x10⁻⁴ to 10⁻³ |
