Toyama was established in 1956 and has a proven record of supplying precision instrumentation and equipment which pioneer new horizons in science.
Toyama's foremost strength is its comprehensive organization which handles every element of system creation, from design and production to installation and maintenance. The company's dedication to excellence during the production process of each and every item builds in high performance and outstanding reliability.
In Japan, Toyama has supplied KEK/PF, Spring-8 and many other research institutions with products which are known for their dependability. Toyama components and systems are used at all the Japanese synchrotrons and high energy physics institutions; in addition the company has supplied equipment to many major Japanese firms (eg, Toshiba, Sony, Canon, Mitsubishi and Hitachi).
In recent years the company has developed its export markets. Toyama has delivered instrumentation to the Canadian Light Source (complete VESPERS beamline), SOLEIL (soft x-ray monochromators, reflectometers), NSRC in Thailand (VLSPGM soft x-ray monochromator), NSRRC in Taiwan (mirror systems) and to other synchrotrons outside Japan, and is currently working on projects with Diamond (in-vacuum diffractometer), Soleil (VLSPGM), Indus-2 (mirror system etc.) and ALBA (complete XMCD beamline).
This talk will present an overview of Toyama’s capabilities from design through to installation, and then focus principally on soft x-ray beamline systems and components. This will include recently designed and installed instrumentation such as complete beamlines and grating monochromators, and will touch on in-vacuum diffractometer, ellipsometer and reflectometer systems.
The final part of the talk will describe experience with accelerator & front end components including undulators, high heat load components (masks, fixed apertures and slits), safety shutters, filters & beam position monitors, and specialist accelerator vacuum
