DanMAX Experimental Station
The instrument and this page is under construction – here you will soon be able to find more details about the DanMAX end station instrumentation, available detectors, available sample environments and how you can interface your own sample environments.
The experimental hutch at DanMAX will host three instruments:
Imaging: Full field imaging with various contrast modes
PXRD2D: In situ and operando experiment using an area detector
PXRD1D: High (enough) resolution diffractometer using an array of microstrip detectors.
You can read more about the powder diffraction instruments in the Detailed Design Report for PXRD here: Diffraction_DDR_v2.pdf.
Detectors at DanMAX:
| Detector | Type | Maximum frame rate | Active area | Resolution in px | Pixel size | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| DECTRIS PILATIUS3 X 2M CdTe | CdTe based hybrid pixel array detector - photon counting | 250 Hz | 253.7 x 288.8 mm2 | 1475 x 1679 (h x v) | 172 x 172 µm2 | |
| RaySpec SiriusSD + XIA FalconX8-1 | Single element silicon drift detector for XRF and FalconX digital pulse processor | 65 mm2 (collimated 50 mm2 ) | 1 | The XRF detector is on loan from the Birkedal group at Aarhus University, Denmark and made available through grant CF18-0802 from the Carslberg Foundation. |
