X-ray diffraction

We have a variety of single and powder X-ray diffractometers capable of tackling the most challenging of problems.

The determination of solid-state structures impacts widely from the development of functional materials to formulation of effective pharmaceuticals. 

Our diffractometers are capable of collecting high-resolution data at low temperatures to systems that can probe structures up to 900°C under 10 atmospheres of reactive gases.
