Design and operation of a hard x-ray transmissive single-shot spectrometer at LCLS
2013
We describe the design and operation of a transmissive single-shot spectrometer for the measurement of hard x-ray free electron laser (FEL) source spectrum at the Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS). The spectrometer was built around a 10 μm thick near-perfect silicon single crystal that was cylindrically bent. Its energy range covered the full FEL bandwidth while its resolution was sufficient for resolving single spectral spikes characteristics of the FELs. Its application will not only greatly facilitate the understanding and optimization of the x-ray FEL sources, but can also serve as an invaluable inline diagnostic tool for experiments where the spectral content of the source plays an important role in data interpretation.
