During this experiment, we would like to optimize the experimental setup and increase the measurement throughput. In addition, we would like to make measurements on different types of cyrstals. The experimental seupt is identical to coherent x-ray diffraction setup at 34-ID-C plus the use of objective optic (i.e. fresnel x-ray zone plate) that will be mounted on a two-theta arm of the Kappa diffractometer. This experiment requires two weeks. The first week will be used for experiemtal setup, alignment, optimization procedure for increasing throughput and can be carried out with parasitic operation. The measurement in the second week require control of the x-ray energy and the use of on-axis beam. The beam energy can be 8.5-10 keV, as long as it is allowed to remain constant throughout the measurement after the initial choice. This works is carried out in collaboration with Christoph Rau. equipment_required: experiment: X-ray Diffraction Microscopy Investigation on Surface Structure of RuO2. foreign_nationals: hazards: Sample: RuO2 signle crystals (~mm in size), SiC single crystal wafers, Diamond Single crystals (~mm in size) , InGaAs thin-film on GaAs wafer.
