Sample

The sample stack with grazing-incidence axes for GISAXS, and the sample-environment thermal control. PVs verified against smibase/manipulators.py and linkam.py.

Enclosure: 12-ID-C.

Note

SMI positions a film or interface in the beam at a grazing angle for GISAXS / GIWAXS, or a bulk sample in transmission for SAXS / WAXS. The experiment-hutch beam-defining slits condition the beam onto the sample just upstream of it. The HUB sample stack carries the theta / phi / chi grazing-incidence axes alongside x / y / z; a SmarAct piezo (XF:12ID2C-ES{MCS:2}) gives fine motion. The Linkam thermal stage reuses the TemperatureController family. The in-situ soft-matter cells (a humidity cell and a blade coater) are SMI specialties, deferred (INSITU-1).

Name Family PV Key specs Replaceable Status
BeamDefiningSlit Slit XF:12IDC-OP:2{Slt:C-Ax: Experiment-hutch beam-defining slit (cslit, the C-hutch slit) trimming the beam onto the sample; reuses the Slit family. confirm
GuardSlit Slit XF:12IDC-OP:2{Slt:E-Ax: Experiment-hutch guard slit (eslit, the E slit) cleaning up parasitic scatter ahead of the sample; reuses the Slit family. confirm
SampleStage LinearStage XF:12IDC-OP:2{HUB:Stg-Ax: HUB sample stack (stage; x / y / z plus theta / phi / chi for grazing incidence), with a SmarAct piezo for fine motion (XF:12ID2C-ES{MCS:2-Ax:}). Bound to LinearStage as a design-phase placeholder; whether the grazing-incidence orientation axes are modelled as a Goniometer plus an Assembly is folded into STAGE-1. confirm
SampleTemperature TemperatureController XF:12ID-ES{LINKAM}: Linkam thermal stage (LThermal) with a tensile variant (LTensile); a LakeShore four-output controller (XF:12ID-ES{Env:01}) also serves. Reuses the TemperatureController family (graduated #350). Which units are live is TEMP-1. confirm
