9-ID Home

Dynamics and Structure Group
APS-U Sector 9-ID

Sector 9-ID is the future home of  the APS-U feature beamline CSSI. The program in nanoscale structure, kinetics and dynamics will host 2 instruments supporting 3 techniques:

  • Coherent Surface Scattering Imaging (CSSI)
  • Grazing-Incidence X-ray Scattering (GISAXS and GIWAXS)
  • Grazing-Incidence X-Ray Photon Correlation Spectroscopy (GI-XPCS)

Projected specifications for the new 9-ID-D beamline are in the 9-ID-D beamline directory entry. 9-ID will be unavailable until APS-U commissioning starts in 2025.
