LCF camera Data

Lcfimage : monochromatic image measured with Liquid Crystal Filter.

  • Three dimensional intensity data of liquid Crystal Filter (LCF) camera, I (fn, x, y), with azimuth (theta) and inclination angle (phi) data during the scan of HySCAI system.
  • Dimension fn is frame number.
  • Dimension x is the horizontal pixel of the CCD detector.
  • Dimension y is the vertical pixel of the CCD detector.
  • The data file is available every 1 or 2 minute.
