A new synchrotron radiation microprobe automatic scanning method based on real-time digital image processing techniques封面论文
Automation is a trend of the hard X-ray microprobe technology e
specially for the synchrotron radiation application where the beamline time is highly demanded.
Purpose:
2
In order to realize the synchronous radiation microprobe fluorescence automation scanning at Shanghai Synchrotron Radiation Facility (SSRF) hard X-ray microfocus beamline (BL15U1)
a real-time digital image processing based method is studied and developed in this paper.
Methods:
2
The proposed system consists of a high sensitivity
&
high frame rate Charge Coupled Device (CCD) imaging system and a XPS motion control system. Sample alignment is integrated into the microprobe scanning functions which allow users to directly click the interested position in the image to moves the sample into the X-ray beam path. It intelligently aligns the specified point on sample surface to the X-ray beam spot. While doing the microprobe scanning
users can specify any interested region on sample surface and set the experimental scanning parameters (time range
scanning steps
and so on)
then the system automatically generates a XPS motion controller configuration file for microprobe scanning
and drives the motors to implement scanning.
Results:
2
Experimental testing showed that the fluorescence mapping of standard gold mask was obtained by automation scanning and could quickly match the region of interest (ROI) on the CCD image.
Conclusion:
2
The new automatic system can improve the microprobe scanning significantly
and the software interface is much more user-friendly.
