For LCLS-II, we have developed fluorescence intensity monitors and power meters as intensity monitors. The Fluorescence Intensity Monitor (FIM) provides the non-invasive, pulse-by-pulse normalization of experiments. For the LCLS-II instruments, the diagnostic was constructed with an array of four microchannel plate assemblies and four avalanche photodiodes. The diagnostics are being installed in each Kirkpatrick Baez mirror chamber. The noise of the diagnostic will be evaluated against a goal of 1 %.
The X-ray power meter delivers average power values. For the LCLS-II instruments, a power meter was selected compatible with high average power. In the LCLS-II instruments, power meters are being installed with each profile monitor in order to evaluate the transmission along the X-ray transport. A calibration of a set of power meters was carried out against a gas monitor detector at FLASH. In addition for all the power meters, a relative calibration was performed with a visible light source. At the endstations, a power meter will determined the pulse energy at the sample.
The absolute power of the Linac Coherent Light Source pulses has been measured accurately in the hard X-ray beamline by using simultaneously two detectors: an X-ray Gas Monitor Detector (XGMD) in tandem with a radiometer. From these measurements, we were also able to characterize and calibrate in details our sets of beamline attenuators, in addition to extending an absolute calibration for our beamline intensity monitors. Similarly, we demonstrate that commercial optical power meter has a response in the hard X-ray regime, that can be cross-correlated with the absolute power of the LCLS beam.
