A Time-resolved X-ray Beamline

NW14A is an insertion device beamline aiming for time-resolved X-ray diffraction, scattering and absorption experiments. This beamline is particularly suitable for studying ultrafast dynamics in condensed matter systems such as organic and inorganic crystals, biological systems, liquids etc. Structural dynamics triggered by optical laser pulses is captured with the synchronized pump-and-probe system. With the relatively large amount of X-ray photon flux derived from the undulators, it is possible to produce atomic-scale movies of the photo-induced phenomena with 100-ps resolution.
