Abstract

An ultra-high vacuum chamber designed for in situ grazing incidence small angle x-ray scattering (GISAXS) surface analysis is described. Unique features of this equipment are the precision rotary feedthrough for angular alignment of the sample, the sample heating design, the Be window arrangement, and the compatibility of this chamber with both a rotating anode and a synchrotron beamline. This chamber was used as part of a GISAXS camera utilizing a 18 kW Rigaku rotating anode, pin-hole collimation, and a position sensitive detector. The resolution of this camera was 0.007 A-1 with a 1.4 mm wide beamstop and CuKα
