A prototype photon‐beam‐position monitor has been designed, fabricated and tested at the Taiwan Light Source of the Synchrotron Radiation Research Center. Aluminium was chosen as the material of the blade electrodes due to its low atomic number and high thermal conductivity. The resolution of this photon‐beam‐position monitor was <±1 µm. The sensitivity of the blade electrode has been measured in situ . Results of measurements for bending‐magnet light and undulator light with different gaps are described.
