(a) Diagram of the shutter used in the experiments utilizing the MAR 165 CCD camera. The tungsten blades (dark gray parallelograms) attach to the galvanometer heads (light gray circles) with epoxy and fully attenuate the incident X-ray beam in the `closed' position. The shutter on the left shows the position in the `closed' state while the shutter on the right shows the `open' state. (b) Example 18 µs X-ray pulse as recorded on a Si PIN diode placed downstream of the samples and the points used to determine the pulse position and width. |
