Abstract:
A radiation furnace that covers the temperature range from room temperature up to 1800 K has been designed and constructed for in situ synchrotron microtomography. The furnace operates under a vacuum or under any inert gas atmosphere. The two 1000 W halogen heating lamps are water-and air-cooled. The sampIes are located at the focus of these lamp reflectors on a rotary feedthrough that is connected to a driving rotation stage below the fumace. The X-ray beam penetrates the furnace through two X-ray-transparent vacuumsealed windows. Further windows can be used for temperature control, sampIe changing and gas inflow and outflow.
