Description
Summary:A new X‐ray crystallographic beamline is operational at the MAX II synchrotron in Lund. The beamline has been in regular use since August 1998 and is used both for macro‐ and small molecule diffraction as well as powder diffraction experiments. The radiation source is a 1.8 T multipole wiggler. The beam is focused vertically by a bendable mirror and horizontally by an asymmetrically cut Si(111) monochromator. The wavelength range is 0.8–1.55 Å with a measured flux at 1 Å of more than 1011 photons s−1 in 0.3 mm × 0.3 mm at the sample position. The station is currently equipped with a Mar345 imaging plate, a Bruker Smart 1000 area CCD detector and a Huber imaging‐plate Guinier camera. An ADSC 210 area CCD detector is planned to be installed during 2000.
