SOFT X-RAY MICROCHARACTERIZATION BEAMLINE

Why do we have to calibrate the flux?

As the beam energy decreases below 4000 eV, the beam position shifts off-centre, leading to a weakening of the beam. To re-center the beam, it is required to calibrate motor Y2 to maintain the beam integrity at lower energies.

Please see below the calibration procedure for more detailed instructions.
