"Nanoscopium: a Scanning Hard X-ray Nanoprobe Beamline at Synchrotron Soleil (France)"

Presented by Andrea Somogyi, Synchrotron Soleil, France

. Nanoscopium is the single scanning hard X-ray nano-probe beamline planned at SOLEIL. This ~155 m long beamline will exploit the high brilliance and coherence characteristics of the X-ray beam both for diffraction limited focusing and for contrast formation. It will offer imaging techniques in multimodal mode in the 30 nm to 1 µm spatial resolution range and will be a research tool for a wide user community working in the fields of earth-, environmental-, and life-sciences. The beamline will cover the 5-20 keV energy range. The stability of the nanobeam will be ensured by horizontally reflecting beamline optics (a sagitally and a tangentially pre-focusing mirror, horizontally reflecting monochromators) in front of the overfilled secondary source. Trade-off between high energy resolution (E/E~10-4) and high flux (1011 ph/s with E/E~10-2) will be achieved by two interchangeable monochromators (a double crystal and a double multilayer one). KB mirror and FZP lenses will be used as focusing devices. The beamline is in the design and construction phase. It is foreseen to be open for users at the beginning of 2013
