What is Synchrotron Light ?

  • Synchrotron Light is electromagnetic

radiation emitted when a high energy beam of charged particles (electrons) is deflected by a magnetic field

a single bending magnet produces a wide fan of radiation multiple bends in an "undulator" or "wiggler" magnet give higher intensity and brighter radiation

slide-3
SLIDE 3

John Adams Institute Seminar Dec. 13th 2006

What’s so special about it ?

  • Covers the

electromagnetic spectrum from microwaves to hard X-rays:

  • can select the wavelength

required for a given experiment synchrotron light

Wavelength (m)

visible light

  • Extremely intense and well collimated:
  • can be focused to sub-micron spot sizes, allows rapid

experiments on small and dilute samples

  • Highly polarised
  • generally linear, but circular also possible
  • Pulsed time structure
  • allows dynamic studies of fast chemical or biological processes

(10-100 ps scale)

What can it be used for ?

Biomedical - protein crystallography and cell biology; Medical research - microbiology, disease mechanisms, high resolution imaging; Environmental science - toxicology, atmospheric research, clean combustion and cleaner industrial production technologies; Agriculture - plant genomics, soil studies and plant imaging; Advanced materials - nanostructured materials, intelligent polymers, ceramics, light metals and alloys, electronic and magnetic materials; Engineering - imaging of industrial processes in real time, high resolution imaging of cracks and defects in structures,

  • peration of catalysts in chemical engineering

processes; Forensic Science - identification from extremely small and dilute samples. Archaeometry - ancient metalworking processes, identification of production sites etc.

A Brief History of Synchrotron Light Sources :

  • Discovery: 1947, General Electric 70 MeV synchrotron
  • First use for experiments: 1956, Cornell 300 MeV synchrotron
  • 1st generation:

machines built for other purposes, mainly High Energy Physics

e.g. Synchrotron Radiation Facility at the NINA Synchrotron, Daresbury (1971-1977)

  • 2nd generation:

purpose-built storage rings for synchrotron light

e.g. the SRS at Daresbury, the world's first dedicated synchrotron X-ray source (1981-2008)

  • 3rd generation:

higher brightness synchrotron light sources, using mainly undulators as the X-ray source

e.g. ESRF, Diamond etc.

slide-6
SLIDE 6

John Adams Institute Seminar Dec. 13th 2006

How does it work ?

A beam of electrons is accelerated in a linac, further accelerated in a booster, then accumulated in a storage ring. The circulating electrons emit intense beams of synchrotron light that are sent along beamlines to the experimental stations.

Diamond Design Criteria

  • Large capacity for Insertion Device beamlines
  • High brightness synchrotron light from undulators optimised in

the range 0.1-10 keV, extending to 15-20 keV

  • High flux from wigglers up to 100 keV
  • Cost constraint
  • “medium” energy of 3 GeV
  • relatively large circumference (562 m) and no. of cells (24) to

give large no. of insertion devices and low emittance

  • Cryo-cooled permanent magnet & Superconducting undulators
  • 3rd Harmonic cavity (bunch lengthening, and shortening)
  • Short pulses: various options being considered –
