A multiple imaging-plate (IP) detector system and focusing monochromator have been developed and successfully applied to the time-resolved study of phase transitions in Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) films by grazing-incidence X-ray diffraction (GIXD). The first reported application of imaging plates to a G...
