Combined with an in-situ infrared spectrometer it will be optimised for soft matter applications at solid-liquid interfaces. A flexible double-chopper setup together with a wavelength band chopper will enable the selection of well defined wavelength bands at different wavelength resolutions in order to optimize measurements with regard to the given application. The selection of different distances between the first choppers allow for choosing constant resolutions of δ λ/λ between 1% and 5% , while different frequencies of the choppers are intended to alter the used bandwidth. A width of the band of 4 Å up to 12 Å can be selected between a minimum wavelength of app. 3 Å and a maximum of 15 Å. Lower wavelength resolutions than 5% can be realised when giving up the constant resolution. A state-of-the-art 2D position sensitive 3 He detector will be used for the reflectivity measurements in horizontal scattering geometry. The time-of-flight mode is also chosen to realise the investigation of dynamic interface processes under shear and flow conditions. A q-range spanning 3 orders of magnitude and reflectivity measurements over 7 orders of magnitude are envisaged and their feasibility is supported by Monte Carlo simulations.
