Abstract
The Canadian Light Source is constructing two beamlines for infrared spectroscopy. One will supply mid infrared (2–20 μm) light to a Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectrometer and microscope for biological applications. The second will have a vacuum FTIR spectrometer for experiments in the far infrared (beyond 20 μm). Flux and brightness curves for these beam lines are reported. The calculations are made to provide working values for the design, construction, and evaluation of the beamlines. To gauge performance, a comparison is made to other infrared beamlines operating with dipole bending magnets and to a thermal source. Values obtained using standard bend radiation formulas are compared with values obtained using the Synchrotron Radiation Workshop. Issues in the first mirror design are also discussed.
