Real-time measurement of intensities of spots as function of energy i.e. I(V)-curves,
I(t) measurements, R-factor analysis, of time oscillations, temperature and
other parameters. Data analysis can be carried out either directly or from
saved images and profile measurement (line scan). The I/V spectra can be either
normalized with the beam current or not.
8 windows for intensity
measurement (free selectable in position and size), 18 spots tracking
Real-time integration
and imaging
On-line (on/off) background
subtraction
Signal averaging
Automatic maximum location
of single spots Automatic window tracking (I/V-curves)

LEED (AIDA-PC) graphical user interface during a line scan through
the LEED pattern of a C(2 x 2) O / Ni (100) superstructure.
The intensity versus
location curve represents the measured profiles of the diffraction spots along
the vertical line through the center of the diffraction pattern.
