XRPD is ideal for identification, refinement, and solution of microcrystalline structures. This technique provides a rapid diagnostic for detecting impurities, quantifying phases, determining molecular-scale and morphological properties of matter, and much more
TS goes beyond typical assessment of diffraction peaks to consider the diffuse intensities scattered underneath and in between. These carry further information about defects, disorder, dynamics, and morphology that underpin functional properties.
The PDF gives an alternative perspective to the total scattering signal by transforming the data to a spatial dependence, allowing properties such as bond lengths, correlated motions, and local structural features to be observed directly.
SAXS probes the material over very low spatial frequencies. This allows observations of inhomogeneity or periodicity in the density, which can be particularly useful for identifying microphase segregation or mesoporosity. It also can give information about domain morphology and size, for example, of small nanoparticles, when crystallites are sufficiently dilute.
Our setup results in a sharp, symmetric instrumental profile and excellent signal-to-noise ratio for improved sensitivity to minute phases and microstructural properties.
Our services are suitable for both commercial and academic purposes. You can find some examples of different applications with reference to peer-reviewed publications.
