Accurate measurement of photon flux from an X-ray source, a parameter required to calculate the dose absorbed by the sample, is not yet routinely available at macromolecular crystallography beamlines. The development of a model for determining the photon flux incident on pin diodes is described here, and has been tested on the macromolecular crystallography beamlines at both the Swiss Light Source, Villigen, Switzerland, and the Advanced Light Source, Berkeley, USA, at energies between 4 and 18 keV. These experiments have shown that a simple model based on energy deposition in silicon is sufficient for determining the flux incident on high-quality silicon pin diodes. The derivation and validation of this model is presented, and a web-based tool for the use of the macromolecular crystallography and wider synchrotron community is introduced.

Liquid-metal jet X-ray sources promise to deliver high photon fluxes, which are unprecedented for laboratory based X-ray sources, because the regenerating liquid-metal anode is less sensitive to damage caused by an increased electron beam power density.

A new protocol for determining the photon flux inside a photomicroreactor is described using (E)-azobenzene and NMR spectroscopy which does not require the determination of the quantum yield of the unstableZisomer.

Illumination of aqueous TiO2 suspentions yields hydroxyl radicals, which can be trapped by methanol producing formaldehyde (HCHO). In this work, the photonic efficiency and quantum yield of HCHO formation in colloidal TiO2 solutions and, P25 and UV 100 suspensions have been determined. Differences in photocatalytic activity of the three photocatalysts have been found and are discussed. The photonic efficiency of HCHO formation in the presence of P25 and UV 100 depends on the concentration of TiO2 and the pH. The critical concentration is 2.5 g/L. Below this, the photonic efficiency with P 25 is higher than with UV 100, and vice versa. Optimum pH values for P25 and UV 100 giving the maximum photonic efficiency are 7.7 and 10.4, respectively. Compared to P25 and UV 100, the true quantum yield of HCHO formation in colloidal TiO2 solution varies a little with pH and virtually does not change with the amount of loading of TiO2. The true quantum yield varies as the inverse square root of light intensity. The quantum yield increases from 0.02 to 0.08 when the absorbed photon flux decreases from 8.1 × 10-7 Ein/L s to 4.9 × 10-8 Ein/L s. A simple model is presented to explain the experimental observation.

At the Metrology Light Source, an electron storage ring dedicated to metrological applications, the U125 insertion device beamline utilizes undulator radiation for various applications over a broad spectral range. Using a hybrid normal-incidence and grazing-incidence in-vacuum switchable plane-grating monochromator, a spectral region ranging from the near-infrared to soft X-ray is covered. The beamline is dedicated to surface-analytical methods, e.g. ellipsometry, photoelectron spectroscopy or photoemission tomography. The traceability of radiometric quantities, i.e. quantitative determination of the available radiant power (or photon flux), is required for some of these applications to support the metrological aspect of the measurements. In particular, attention is paid to the suppression of unwanted spectral contributions from higher diffraction orders, and to the monitoring of the radiation intensity during the measurements. With the results from the beamline commissioning, an uncertainty budget for all relevant radiometric quantities was established.
