Description
Empyrien with CuKα radiation (i.e. wavelength of 1.54 Å), and 45 position sample changer.
- Bragg-Brentano geometry and transmission geometry
- θ–2θ operating mode
Incident beam optics:
- iCore (Motorized divergence slit, mask, mirroir, attenuators)
- Monochormator (select one wavelength)
Diffracted beam optics:
- dCore (integrated optics)
- Programmable anti-scatter slit
- Detector arm 1 : 1Der (well suited for all standard xrd and fluorescent sample)
- Detector arm 2: PIXcell2D (0D,1D,2D scanning and static modes)
Well suited for:
- Routine XRD, GIXRD
- Useful if you wish to measure your samples straight after production etc.
- For quantification of the phases in the sample using Rietveld refinement.
- Good for fluorescent samples using 1Der detector
