Description

The advent of extremely bright x-ray beams from new low emittance sources such as ESRF and APS offers new opportunities for materials research. One of the most exciting and technologically demanding areas is likely to be time-resolved x-ray studies. The authors' recent experiments at NSLS Brookhaven (Beamline X-16B) explore some of the challenges for time-resolved x-ray scattering combining developments in x-ray optics (dispersive geometry), area detectors (CCD's) and fast data acquisition. In this paper the techniques are illustrated with results on the rapid thermal annealing of electronic materials including strained-layer InxCa1-xAs quantum-well structures. The authors described the application of a new virtual-phase CCD detector for real-time diffraction studies at the microsecond time scale
