Image_File: 96904222 Title: Entrance slit flexure assembly for ALS Description: Entrance slit flexure assembly, designed at the Advanced Light Source to provide precise, symmetric control of slit width under high thermal loads in an ultra-high-vacuum environment. Slit width can vary from a few microns to 100 µm, so users can choose to maximize either spectral resolution of flux. Slit blade movement is actuated by a differential-pitch micrometer, allowing submicron control of slit width. The assembly is made of GlidCopª, a copper alloy that provides seven times the strength of copper while retaining its high thermal conductivity.
