Surface scattering characterization of the fluid/substrate interface in a fluidic experiment — •J.-F. Moulin and P. Mueller-Buschbaum — TU Muenchen, Physik-Department, LS E13, James-Franck-Str.1, 85747 Garching (Germany)

We will present the results of Grazing Incidence X-Ray Scattering (GISAXS) performed on fluidic channels. Scattering methods such as Grazing incidence x-ray scattering (GISAXS) provide a wealth of information about the interfacial structure: with such an experimental technique both the in-plane ordering and the out of plane correlations are detected and quantitatively characterized in a non invasive/non destructive manner. Up to now this technique has never been used to characterize samples under flow. We have thus designed a new setup to perform GISAXS during a fluidic experiment where a solution is run over a substrate [1]. Together with state of the art GISAXS synchrotron beamlines such as BW4 at Hasylab (Hamburg, Germany) this setup makes it possible to map the structure of the liquid/solid interface of a fluidic channel at spots separated by c.a. 50 microns along the flow direction.

We will here present results obtained on detection of gold nanoparticles at the fluid/substrate interface as well as on the way these particles form a thin film under flow and how the structure of this film evolves with time.
