PANalytical Materials Research Diffractometer - "X'Pert 1"
PANalytical Materials Research Diffractometer - "X'Pert 2"
Multiwire Laue
Bruker Single Crystal Diffracometer D8 Venture
X-ray Lab has the following data analysis software installed on our
stand alone computers:
The Powder Diffraction File PDF-4
Materials Studio
X'Pert Epitaxy
X'Pert Reflectivity
X'Pert HighScore Plus
X'Pert Texture
X'Pert Stress
Please feel free to navigate through the X-ray Lab
Website and get familiar with the diffractometers and software.
If you want to carry out x-ray diffraction experiment
I recommend you to visit “Techniques” and decide which
diffractometer will be suitable for your measurements.
