CDI

coherent diffractive imaging (forward CDI, ptychography, Bragg CDI) with a KB nanofocus and Eiger2 / Merlin photon-counting detectors, 9-ID; NSLS-II's coherent-imaging beamline after Diamond i13-1, distinct from APS 9-ID; modelled from public beamline config.

Property Value
Facility NSLS-II (EPICS / bluesky)
Sector Sector 9
Source insertion-device
Modelled reverse-engineered, full coverage

Generated from the descriptor

This page is generated from the descriptor at deployments/cdi/beamline.yaml. Edit the descriptor, not this page.

The device handles are read from the facility's public controls configuration and verified against it; vendor parts, energies, and physical positions are not in it and are carried confirm until beamline staff verify them. Source: NSLS2/cdi-profile-collection.

Enclosures

Enclosure Role Facility Permit signal
9-ID-A optics-hutch nsls2 confirm: PSS search-and-secure permit leaf not in source; no shutter PVs are in the profile collection either (PSS-1)
9-ID-C experiment-hutch nsls2 confirm: PSS permit leaf unknown; 9-ID-C is the endstation carrying the KB nanofocus, the sample goniometer, and the detectors. The 09IDB branch zone may be a distinct enclosure (ENC-1)

The beamline

Coherent diffractive imaging: a focused coherent beam, the far-field diffraction pattern on an area detector, and the real-space image recovered offline by phase retrieval.

  • Source: the beam, produced and conditioned before the sample.
  • Sample: the sample environment and its positioning.
  • Detector: what records the beam after the sample.
  • Controls: the control plane CORA's edge conducts over.

Not yet documented

This beamline has no Operations runbook and no live Experiment view, because CORA does not drive it yet. Both pages describe what an operator does with a running system, so writing them for a beamline CORA only models would be invention rather than documentation. The pilot at 2-BM carries both, and shows the shape they take once a deployment goes live.
