RESEARCH SUPPORT FACILITIES
By Jessica Padilla Research Technician of the X-ray Diffraction Facility
LEARNING OBJECTIVES: The seminar provides an overview of the XRD Facility at ICN2 and technical details about the two Malvern- Panalytical diffractometers available in the Facility. It will offer a basic introduction on XRD technique and also the standard applications available inside the XRD Facility (phase and crystal structure identification, cell parameters and thickness determination, domain orientation/stress, etc…) for powder and thin films samples. The seminar will also present the in-situ capabilities available in the XRD Facility by means of several cases studies (applying temperature, light or gas environment)
- Introduction to the XRD Facility
- Technical description about the available diffractometers inside the XRD Facility
- Measurement possibilities for powder samples: reflexion and transmission configurations, capillary and SAXS measurements.
- Measurement possibilities for thin film samples (standard measurements and in-situ XRD characterization under controlled atmosphere, temperature or light)
CONTENT DESCRIPTION:
- Brief introduction: available equipment at XRD Facility for powder/thin films
- X’pert Pro MPD: Powder Analysis applications and Future Plans
- X’pert Pro MRD: High Resolution and Non- ambient XRD applications
- Available XRD Data Base at ICN2 Facility
