Crystallographic Data Collection Using a Multilayer Monochromator on an Undulator Beamline at the Shanghai Synchrotron Radiation Facility

To resolve photons hungry for weak diffraction samples by the crystallographic method, a double-multilayer monochromator (DMM) was employed on an undulator beamline (BL17UM) at the Shanghai Synchrotron Radiation Facility (SSRF) to provide a focused sub-micron beam with high brightness for macromolec...

description To resolve photons hungry for weak diffraction samples by the crystallographic method, a double-multilayer monochromator (DMM) was employed on an undulator beamline (BL17UM) at the Shanghai Synchrotron Radiation Facility (SSRF) to provide a focused sub-micron beam with high brightness for macromolecular crystallography experiments. High-quality crystallographic datasets from model protein crystal samples were collected and processed by an existing crystallographic program for structure solution and refinement. The data quality was compared with datasets from a normal silicon crystal monochromator to evaluate the bandwidth of the DMM effect on these crystallographic data. This experiment demonstrates that multilayer optics on an undulator beamline may play a valuable role in satisfying the demands of structure-related research, which requires novel methods.
