Figure 1
Schematic of the experimental setup of an ES-based aerosol injector used at the EuXFEL. The injector includes the ES process depicted at the top, where the sample is aerosolized. The aerosol beam then passes through the skimmer stages and the aerodynamic lens before reaching the interaction chamber, where it is hit by the XFEL beam. The XFEL pulses are scattered off particles in the aerosol beam to produce diffraction patterns on the detector. Insets: (i) a typical Taylor cone, here injecting silver nano-cube in 80 mM ammonium acetate dissolved in ethanol; (ii) the X-ray beam focus is significantly smaller than particle beam focus.
