Composition of the filter. Chemical formula can be specified separately.
This field was changed (2010-11-17) from an enumeration to a string since common usage showed a wider variety of use than a simple list. These are the items in the list at the time of the change: Beryllium | Pyrolytic Graphite | Graphite | Sapphire | Silicon | Supermirror.

Any of these values:
in: in the beam
out: out of the beamtemperature: (optional) NX_FLOAT {units=NX_TEMPERATURE}

The chemical formula specified using CIF conventions. ...
The chemical formula specified using CIF conventions. Abbreviated version of CIF standard:
Only recognized element symbols may be used.
Each element symbol is followed by a ‘count’ number. A count of ‘1’ may be omitted.
A space or parenthesis must separate each cluster of (element symbol + count).
Where a group of elements is enclosed in parentheses, the multiplier for the group must follow the closing parentheses. That is, all element and group multipliers are assumed to be printed as subscripted numbers.
Unless the elements are ordered in a manner that corresponds to their chemical structure, the order of the elements within any group or moiety depends on whether or not carbon is present.
If carbon is present, the order should be:
C, then H, then the other elements in alphabetical order of their symbol.
If carbon is not present, the elements are listed purely in alphabetic order of their symbol.
This is the Hill system used by Chemical Abstracts.
