Review of project goals
Diamond radiators with the following properties:Diamond radiators with the following properties:1. thickness: 15 - 20 microns
2. uniform area: 4 x 2 mm2 (per beam spot position)
3. rocking curve width: < 20 rad RMS (whole-crystal)
Radiator mount with the following propertiesRadiator mount with the following properties:1. low mass: > 98% of beam photons from diamond
2. thermally robust: stable operation at full beam intensity
3. vibration resistant: twist modes < 10 rad RMS amplitude
4. low stress: thin crystals are very susceptible to bendingthin crystals are very susceptible to bending
These two are in tension with each other

Accomplishments since Jan. 2010
• Complementary techniques– laser ablation is the standard option– RCMP is the backup option (depends on SBIR funding)– RCMP may be useful with laser ablation (clean ablated surface)– a third possibility has re-emerged: thinning by E6 mystery facilitiesa third possibility has re-emerged: thinning by E6 mystery facilities
• A lot depends on what happens in the next 12 monthsthe next 12 months:– Laser refurb. does not hit a show-stopper– Sinmat’s interest in our project is maintained
• depends on SBIR funding• or finding another source of funds
– Our collaboration with CHESS staff is maintained• we should carry out the upgrade they requested
– We can procure a set of Element Six diamonds of our own

New Ideas under test in 2011 Solving problems with crystal vibrations:Solving problems with crystal vibrations:
1. reduce vibrations by raising 0 (ambient f ~ 1/(ambient f ~ 1/33))
2. change mount to low-Z material (W wire (W wire →→ C fiber) C fiber)
3.3. test using a high-tension membranetest using a high-tension membrane (avoid adhesive) (avoid adhesive)
Investigating the causes of crystal curvatureInvestigating the causes of crystal curvature:1. external vs. internal stress
2. engineering active correction into the mount
Comparing intrinsic rocking curves of different gradesComparing intrinsic rocking curves of different grades1. Sinmat 9 micron thinned CVD sample
2. ‘‘CVD single-crystal’’ vs. ‘‘electronic grade SC’’
3. nature of E6 ‘‘mystery 10 micron crystal’’

• Intrinsic rocking curve width meets GlueX spec.• Defect structure dominates the global rocking curve.• Large-scale curvature is along the defect strain axis.
• This crystal is not usable for GlueXThis crystal is not usable for GlueX
• It appears that the existing strain pattern is residual damage from the event that broke the crystal.

Summary for PRISTINES / PLATES
• From GlueX point of view there is no real difference between “electronic grade” and standard CVD type 3A.
• No significant defect structure in any of these 5 plates.• Prices are factor of ~5 cheaper for standard type 3A.
• These crystals are all usable for GlueX in These crystals are all usable for GlueX in both orientations, both orientations, provided that they can be provided that they can be thinnedthinned..
• Stretched mylar mount did not distort these ones – no surprise – they are very stiff at 300 microns!

SI-SHEET• SI-SHEET is a large circular disc of pure single-crystal silicon 50 microns thick.• sandwiched between the mylar sheets in our stretched mylar mount• transmission-mode rocking curve, taken with (3,3,1) planes
GlueX collaboration meeting, Bloomington, May 9-11, 2011 30
SI-SHEET• There is a large area where
the flatness is fairly good
• Leading-order distortion is quadrupole, as expected.
• Center is up and to the right – was adjusted later.
• Size of curvature is roughly consistent with MI images images taken at UConn.
• Engineered corrections should enable us to null the quadrupole moment.

Summary of present status We now know how to mount diamonds at CHESS in a flexible and
non-destructive fashion, so that vibrations are not an issue.vibrations are not an issue.
We now have one (excessively?) thin diamond that is usable for GlueX in one orientation – but we don’t know how to hold it flat.but we don’t know how to hold it flat.
We have a pretty clear idea how to modify our stretched mylar mount so that it can hold thin diamonds within our flatness spec.

Current ideas for radiator support• Start with a large area (6mm x 6mm x 0.3mm) CVD diamond
Use the excimer laser to cut out a rectangular hole, then
stick a thin wafer on the back
Use the excimer laser to mill out a thin section out of the
center for the beam spot
requires precise laser control
van der Waals bond might be sufficient

Immediate Prospects
• Phase II STTR grant application with Sinmat submitted in March.
• CHESS collaborator Ken Finkelstein generally satisified with progress, willing to continue.
• Publication presenting these results is expected this summer, probably NIM.
• First diamond cuts with the laser expected this month, as soon as vacuum chamber finished.
