Data Acquisition System Based on the Bluesky Suite in the Shanghai Synchrotron Radiation Facility

Abstract

The Shanghai Synchrotron Radiation Facility Phase-II Project is now under construction and it consists of 16 newly built advanced beamlines. The experiments carried out at these new beamlines tend to be characterized by high flux, multi-mode, ultra-fast frequency, in situ and dynamic loading. To meet these emerging experimental demands of SSRF Phase-II beamlines, the authors have developed a unified and extensible data acquisition system based on Bluesky suite. It has been applied at the BL07U Spatial-resolved and Spin-resolved ARPES and magnetism beamline. The experiment results show that with up to 5 channel signals, the system is capable of collecting total electron yield signals of experimental sample and standard sample, and incident photon flux signals simultaneously. It improves the user experimental efficiency and quality. In addition, thanks to Bluesky suite, all devices can be abstracted as motors or detectors and then represented by a Python object. Therefore, with the architecture, modules and interface developed for BL07U, the system can be extended to more beamlines efficiently and easily.
