Beamline 1.3W
Small and Wide Angle X-ray Scattering (SAXS/WAXS)
Welcome to BL1.3W
BL1.3W uses synchrotron light from a Multipole Wiggler — a permanent-magnet insertion device installed in the storage ring. It generates a high magnetic field of 2.2 Tesla, which produces the intense, broad-spectrum X-rays used at this beamline. The beamline supports Small and Wide Angle X-ray Scattering techniques for structural characterization, including:
Small-Angle X-ray Scattering
Determines particle size, shape, and structural organization at the nanometer scale (approximately 1–100 nm), applicable to a wide range of nanoscale materials such as nanoparticles, polymers and fibers, and biological nanostructures.
Wide-Angle X-ray Scattering
Probes crystalline structure across a range of sample types, from polymers and biological materials to inorganic crystals, and can determine properties such as degree of crystallinity.
Simultaneous SAXS/WAXS
Both length scales can be measured at the same time on a single sample.
