Commissioning of Angle Dispersive X-ray Diffraction Beamline on Indus-2
Abstract
An Angle dispersive x-ray diffraction (ADXRD) beamline on bending magnet source of Indus-2 synchrotron (2.5 GeV, 300 mA) has been commissioned, for the study of single and polycrystalline samples. The beamline optics is based on vertically focusing Pt-coated pre and post mirrors and sagittal focusing Si (311) based double crystal monochromator. Experimental station consists of a six circle diffractometer equipped with scintillation detector and an image plate area detector for powder diffraction. XRD experiments have been performed to study single crystal and polycrystalline samples.
