X'PERT PRO Pananalytical, purchased January 2005
Vertical goniometer of Θ-Θ geometry, independent Θ and 2Θ driving gears, angle range from 0.2o, possibility to change the diameter of the goniometer, angular precision 0.001o |
Ceramic Cu X-ray tube, power capability of 2 kW, water cooling, "long fine focus", elimination of Kβ (filtr Ni) |
Optical modules at the primary and secondary beam: slits and colimators for diffractometry and reflectivity measurements with three computer operated elements; the PreFix system allows easy exchange (no re-alignment) of details |
Two detection tracks supplied with proportional counters:
|
The low temperatures 80-750 K |
The high-temperature chamber designed for measurements at temperatures up to 1500 K; |
Computer operation |
The system satisfies the most stringent requirements with respect to protection from X-rays. The complete X-ray compartment is enclosed in a steel cabinet with lead glass windows.
