B16-Test Beamline	Spatially resolved mapping of phase transitions in liquid-crystalline materials by X-ray birefringence imaging Yating Zhou , Rhian Patterson , Benjamin A. Palmer , Gregory Edwards-Gau , Benson M. Kariuki , N. S. Saleesh Kumar , Duncan W. Bruce , Igor P. Dolbnya , Stephen P. Collins , Andrew Malandain , Kenneth D. M. Harris Chemical Science 33 DOI: 10.1039/C8SC05285A Diamond Proposal Number(s): [11893, 13819] Open Access Show Abstract ▼ Abstract: The X-ray Birefringence Imaging (XBI) technique, first reported in 2014, is a sensitive method for spatially resolved mapping of the local orientational properties of anisotropic materials. We report the first application of the XBI technique to characterize molecular orientational ordering in a liquid crystalline material, demonstrating significant potential for exploiting XBI measurements to advance structural understanding of liquid crystal phases.

B16-Test Beamline Optics	A double multilayer monochromator for the B16 Test beamline at the Diamond Light Source Kawal Sawhney , Igor Dolbnya , Stewart Scott , Manoj Tiwari , Geoff Preece , Simon Alcock , A. W. Malandain SPIE DOI: 10.1117/12.894920 Show Abstract ▼ Abstract: The B16 Test beamline at the Diamond Light Source is in user operation. It has been recently upgraded with the addition of a double multilayer monochromator (DMM), which provides further functionality and versatility to the beamline. The multilayer monochromator is equipped with two pairs of multilayer optics (Ni/B4C and Ru/B4C) to cover the wide photon energy range of 2 - 20 keV, with good efficiency. The DMM provides a broad bandpass / high flux operational mode for the beamline and, when used in tandem with the Si (111) double crystal monochromator, it gives a very high higher-order harmonics suppression. The design details of the DMM and the first commissioning results obtained using the DMM are presented.	Sep 2011
