Description

[0002] X-ray photon correlation spectroscopy (XPCS) has become one of the key probes for nanoscale dynamics in recent years, and is suitable for a wide range of condensed matter systems. XPCS produces a speckle pattern by making a coherent X-ray beam incident on a sample. Since the sample structure changes over time, the corresponding speckle distribution will also fluctuate over time. By analyzing the change of intensity correlation over time, the dynamic information of the sample can be obtained. The necessary conditions for XPCS experiment include: making the coherent light beam pass through the center of the sample, precisely controlling the sample temperature; however, the coherence of the X-ray generated by the third generation synchrotron cannot meet the experimental requirements, that is, the synchrotron cannot meet the conditions for carrying out XPCS experiment.

[0102] Example 1
[0103] The X-ray photon correlation spectroscopy sample experiment platform of the present application is regulated as follows:
[0104] 1) First, the optical collimation laser instrument 1 is used to coarsely adjust the experimental light path. The optical collimation laser instrument 1 is manually adjusted to the same direction as the X-ray light path (at this time, the X-ray is not turned on), the sample stage 5 and the temperature control module 6 and the photodetector 7 are moved into the light path, the filter device 2 is rotated to prevent damage to the detector due to exceeding the detection range (in general, a filter with a 50% attenuation rate is used, so it is not easy to exceed the range. If the range is exceeded, the output current of the photodetector will be very high (as compared with the photodetector manual), and the optical collimation laser instrument 1 can be turned off in time), and the optical collimation laser instrument 1, the photodetector 7 and the sample stage 5 are aligned.
[0105] 2) The first light limiting element 3 is moved in, and is moved in the XY plane to obtain the value of the photodetector 7. The position of the first light limiting element 3 when the current signal value of the photodetector 7 is maximum is found, the first light limiting element 3 is aligned, and the position is recorded. The first light limiting element 3 is removed from the light path.
[0106] 3) The second light limiting element 4 is moved in, and is moved in the XY plane to obtain the value of the photodetector 7. The position of the second light limiting element 4 when the current signal value of the photodetector 7 is maximum is found, the second light limiting element 4 is aligned, and the first light limiting element 3 is moved to the recorded position to achieve coarse alignment of the optical collimation laser instrument 1, the first light limiting element 3 and the second light limiting element 4.
[0107] 4) The optical collimation laser instrument 1 is turned off, and the X-ray is turned on. The first light limiting element 3 is moved in the XY plane to obtain the value of the photodetector 7. The position of the first light limiting element 3 when the current signal is maximum is found. Then the second light limiting element 4 is moved in the XY plane to obtain the value of the photodetector 7. The position of the second light limiting element 4 when the current signal is maximum is found. The first light limiting element 3 and the second light limiting element 4 are adjusted three times to achieve precise alignment.
[0108] 5) The photodetector 7 is removed from the light path. The light spot pattern collected by the X-ray detector 8 is used as a reference (the reference is the light spot morphology. Whether there is shielding around the detected light spot and whether it is symmetrical are observed. If there is shielding, the first light limiting element 3 or the second light limiting element 4 is moved in the opposite direction), and the first light limiting element 3 and the second light limiting element 4 are finally adjusted: the first light limiting element 3 is adjusted first, and then the second light limiting element 4 is adjusted. They can be moved in the XY plane to complete the adjustment.
[0109] 6) Put in the sample, i.e. start the experiment, the sample is a silica sphere glycerol solution, the temperature of the temperature control module is 25℃; the obtained result is as shown in Figure 2 、 Figure 3 : Almost no stray light is observed, indicating that the XPCS sample experimental platform of the application can greatly improve the coherence of light and reduce stray light; Figure 2 The analysis spectrum result is simple and clear, and the contrast is improved to about 0.055, because the double-limit light element in the embodiment effectively improves the coherence of light and greatly removes stray light, and the temperature of the sample is accurately controlled, thereby improving the resolution of the XPCS experiment and improving the data quality of the experimental result.
[0110] Comparative Example 1
[0111] The sample, a silica sphere glycerol solution (the same as in Example 1), is measured, and in this experiment, the sample is not temperature-controlled, no light adjustment is performed using the XPCS experimental sample table of the application, and only the original X-ray of the line station is used.
[0112] The result is as shown in Figure 4 The experimental result image obtained in Comparative Example 1 has more stray light and is blurred, because the coherence of light is poor, and the temperature fluctuation makes the experiment unstable, the analysis spectrum result is not clear, the analysis spectrum relaxation curve is tortuous, and it is difficult to obtain information therefrom, as shown in Figure 5 .
[0113] In summary, the XPCS sample experimental platform of the application uses a small-aperture diaphragm and other limiting light elements, limits the size of the incident light spot, thereby improving the coherence of the incident light, and accurately positions the sample so that the coherent X-ray is accurately irradiated on the sample. The XPCS sample experimental platform of the application solves the problem that the domestic synchrotron radiation source cannot carry out XPCS experiments, can image the movement of a hundred nanometer solute solution, and has a wide application prospect in material science, nanotechnology and biology. Therefore, the application effectively overcomes the printing defects of the prior art, such as obvious scratches on the coated surface and poor coating quality of the slurry, and has high industrial utilization value.
