NXmonochromator¶
Status:
base class, extends NXobject
Description:
A wavelength defining device.
This is a base class for everything which selects a wavelength or energy, be it a monochromator crystal, a velocity selector, an undulator or whatever.
The expected units are:
wavelength: angstrom
energy: eV
Symbols:
No symbol table
- Groups cited:
NXcrystal, NXdata, NXgeometry, NXgrating, NXvelocity_selector
Structure:
@default: (optional) NX_CHAR
Declares which child group contains a path leading to a NXdata group.
It is recommended (as of NIAC2014) to use this attribute to help define the path to the default dataset to be plotted. See https://www.nexusformat.org/2014_How_to_find_default_data.html for a summary of the discussion.
