The X-ray facility at Georgia Tech is split between the Marcus Nanotechnology Building and the Paper Tricentennial Building. The functionality of these instruments is greatly multiplied by Malvern PANalytical’s revolutionary “PREFIX” optics system whereby instrument optics may be reconfigured with little more than the turn of a set screw, and an instrument may be changed from diverging beam optics to parallel beam optics in less than 5 minutes while still being completely aligned.
Malvern PANalytical Empyrean
The Malvern PANalytical Empyrean generates x-rays, directs them toward the sample, and the diffracted rays are collected. A key component of diffraction is the angle between the incident and the diffracted beam.
Malvern PANalytical MRD
The Malvern PANalytical Materials Research Diffractometer (MRD) generates x-rays, directs them toward the sample, and the diffracted rays are collected. A key component of diffraction is the angle between the incident and the diffracted beam.
Rigaku Miniflex
The Rigaku Miniflex is an X-Ray Diffractometer (XRD) that is ideal for measuring powders or small solid samples. It has an 8-station autosampler for running multiple samples and a knife-edge for measurements at very low angle.
Smartlab SE XRD
The Rigaku Smartlab SE is an X-Ray Diffractometer (XRD) that can run bulk, powder, or thin film solid samples.
Rigaku Smartlab XE XRD
The Rigaku Smartlab XE is an X-ray Diffractometer (XRD) that can run powder, or bulk solid samples up to 4" in diameter.
