X-Ray powder diffraction laboratory

The main instrument is the Bruker GADD/D8 X-Ray system with Apex Smart CCD Detector, imaging plate, and direct-drive rotating anode.
The MacSci rotating anode (Molybdenum) is used with a 50 kV generator and 20 mA current. X-Ray size of 50 to 100 microns.
The facility is ideally suitable for a pressure range from 0 to 50 GPa (depending on the chemical composition of the sample) and for the high-temperature study of materials from 300 to 3000 K at ambient pressure. The high-intensity X-ray beam results from the use of AXS optical device. The usual collection time is 60 to 600 seconds.
