GSECARS Sector 13 Upgrade

at the Advanced Photon Source

GSECARS has undergone an upgrade to a canted undulator layout. IDT have designed & built all the first optics enclosure components plus other beamline components as part of this upgrade.

The first optics enclosure features a dual primary slit system for both canted beams which are suitable for operation at 200mA ring current, an upgrade to the existing DCM for the canted beam geometry plus a new air-bearing DCM, a double horizontal focusing mirror system as well as beam conditioning components. IDT also provided a Secondary Source Aperture, a family of multi-function Beam Position Monitors, and a Small KB Mirror System.
