European Synchrotron Radiation Facility
ID31 High-energy beamline for buried interface structure and materials processing

ID31 is dedicated for interface and materials processing studies using high energy X-rays. It offers a portfolio of hard X-ray characterisation techniques including reflectivity, wide and small angle diffraction (both in transmission and grazing incidence geometry), imaging methods, auxiliary techniques, coupled with a great versatility in choosing beam sizes, energy and energy-band.
