Figure 1
(a) Side view of the experimental configuration showing the relative positions of the flow cell, the optical instrumentation, the WAXD and SAXS detectors and the evacuated tube. The flow direction comes out of the page. (b) Details of the optical instrumentation located in the dashed rectangle in (a) as viewed from the top, indicating the relative position with respect to the flow cell and the X-ray beam. (c) Details of the flow cell composed of two stainless steel pieces that are bolted together, with diamond windows mounted as shown. The incoming light enters a cylindrical aperture and exits through a conical aperture to allow passage of the WAXD pattern up to 35°. |
