CVD Diamond Vacuum Window for Synchrotron Radiation Beamlines

An innovative design of a chemical vapour deposited (CVD) diamond vacuum window is presented. The thermo-mechanical properties of the integrated window have been optimised through extensive numerical modelling. An innovative brazing procedure suited for thin non-metallised windows was concurrently developed. Mechanical and optical tests performed on the prototype of the window confirmed the validity of the adopted concepts, thus providing proof that the developed solution constitutes a valid and in many aspects advantageous solution with respect to beryllium windows so far used at synchrotron radiation facilities for this purpose. Based on the proposed design, an off-the-shelf diamond window is being brought to market.
