The General Experiment Technology (GET) Department is responsible for R&D, and engineering implementation of key general technologies of beamline endstation at SHINE. It consists of detector system, data acquisition and analysis system, high-performance data management system, and optical laser system. A R&D team with 17 members has been established, including 2 Researchers, 6 Associate researchers, 1 Senior Engineer, 6 Assistant Researchers, and 2 Engineers. It has undertaken the research tasks of major scientific research projects, such as SHINE project.
To meet the challenge of SHINE, which is to greatly improve the properties of light source, e.g., brightness, coherence, etc., the R&D team is working on the key technologies, e.g., advanced X-ray detectors, big data, high repetition rate optical lasers, etc.. They have achieved a number of achievements, such as the design and integration of the transition edge superconducting (TES) detector, the preparation of the chips of the high repetition rate silicon pixel array detector, the design of SHINE data system, the database and data integration service system for photon science, the high-throughput data stream processing engine, and the long-distance transmission laser. All the key technologies strongly supports the R&D of SHINE.
