TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
Specifications and configuration
- Function
- Compact synchrotron transmission cell using thermoelectric heating / cooling from −20 to 60°C.
- Beam path / detection
- Opposing Kapton or Be windows for XAFS / XRD / imaging configurations.
- Temperature control
- TEC/Peltier module with water cooling or heat sink; PT100 / thermocouple and PID feedback.
- Fluid handling
- Static or flowing liquid; optional gas exchange against condensation and water cooling.
- Sealing / structure
- Flat rectangular chamber with O-ring or silicone seal; optional dry-gas curtain.
- Sample mounting
- Sample on a copper / aluminum block; spacer-defined liquid layer, typically 0.5–2 mm.
Materials, windows, temperature control and interfaces are selected for the experiment. Confirm instrument compatibility and the final technical agreement.
LABORATORY PLANNING
Prepare your laboratory
- Compatibility
- Confirm beam geometry, cell mounting, window material, sample thickness and instrument clearance.
- Utilities
- Match gas, liquid, electrical and heating / cooling connections to the experiment.
- Installation review
- Confirm sealing, material compatibility and operating limits with the technical team.
Cell requirements depend on the selected materials, interfaces and host instrument.
