Template for specifying the state of band pass filters.
If uncertain whether to use NXfilter (band-pass filter)
or NXattenuator (reduces beam intensity), then use
NXattenuator.
Geometry of the filter
Composition of the filter. Chemical formula can be specified separately.
This field was changed (2010-11-17) from an enumeration to
a string since common usage showed a wider variety of use
than a simple list. These are the items in the list at
the time of the change:
Beryllium
Pyrolytic Graphite
Graphite
Sapphire
Silicon
Supermirror
position with respect to in or out of the beam (choice of only "in" or "out")
- in the beam
- out of the beam
Wavelength transmission profile of filter
average/nominal filter temperature
Linked temperature_log for the filter
Thickness of the filter
mass density of the filter
The chemical formula specified using CIF conventions.
Abbreviated version of CIF standard:
Only recognized element symbols may be used.
Each element symbol is followed by a 'count' number. A count of '1' may be omitted.
A space or parenthesis must separate each cluster of (element symbol + count).
Where a group of elements is enclosed in parentheses, the multiplier for the
group must follow the closing parentheses. That is, all element and group
multipliers are assumed to be printed as subscripted numbers.
Unless the elements are ordered in a manner that corresponds to their chemical
structure, the order of the elements within any group or moiety depends on
whether or not carbon is present.
If carbon is present, the order should be:
C, then H, then the other elements in alphabetical order of their symbol.
If carbon is not present, the elements are listed purely in alphabetic
order of their symbol.
This is the 'Hill' system used by Chemical Abstracts.
