Layout of the CAMP end-station at FLASH BL1. The FEL beam enters from the left and is focused by the (1) horizontal and (2) vertical plane-elliptical focusing KB-mirrors. (3) The differential pumping section houses a drilled 1.5-inch mirror that is used to couple in the FLASH1 pump–probe laser and to overlap it with the FEL beam under a small angle. (4) The main experimental chamber has four DN250CF ports each in a transverse distance of 260 mm to (5) the interaction region, where the FEL is focused. Typically, the spectrometers (see §3.2) are inserted from the top and bottom, while sample injection or target holders are mounted on the sides. Downstream of the main chamber, a detector chamber can be placed that houses the front pnCCD detector plane (6) that consists of two detector halves which can be moved independently to catch large scattering angles. (7) A second detector plane can be placed at a fixed position for small-angle scattering. The experimental chamber is on a frame that can be translated in the XYZ direction as well as pitched and tilted with respect to the FEL beam, which points downwards by 6° after exiting the KB focusing system. |
