The IDT quad diode beam position monitor is designed for use in monochromatic beam,
and consists of a motor-driven multi-foil selector, with up to 4 different foils
plus a bypass aperture and a fluorescent YAG screen with high resolution CCD camera
and optics.
Downstream of the foil selector are 4 diodes for intensity and beam position measurements
from radiation scattered off the foils. The quad diode BPM can be used to provide
positional feedback to piezos installed in upstream monochromators and mirrors.
Quad diode system for intensity & beam position measurements.
Rotatable foil selector with wide energy range 4keV - 25keV.
Nickel, chromium, titanium & copper foils.
Ultra-flat foils with sub-µm thickness.
Built-in fluorescent YAG screen with high resolution CCD camera & optics for beam
imaging.
EPICS driver for CCD camera.
Fast positional feedback to primary optical components.
Focus & align beam using optical components.
Can be integrated with Secondary Source Aperture for mono beam viewing at secondary
source.
Mounted on an ultra stable granite block with a measured amplification factor of
1.0.
