X’Pert PRO X-ray diffraction for today and tomorrow
Contents • X-ray diffraction for today how can we make your work easier? • X-ray diffraction for tomorrow the only thing constant in life is change
Stress Phaseanalysis Diffractometer Texture Crystallography X’Pert PRO: X-ray diffraction for today Flat samples Loose powders Rough samples Small amounts Preferred orientation
The “ideal” diffraction system Fast exchange of : • Tubes and tube focus positions • Incident beam optics • Sample platforms • Diffracted beam optics • Detectors without re-alignment !
What is X’Pert PRO? Based on the PreFIX concept What is PreFIX? Pre-aligned Fast Interchangeable X-ray modules Exchange is easy, no re-alignment of hardware
PreFIX incident beam optics • Fixed divergence slit • Programmable divergence slit • X-ray mirror • Hybrid monochromator • X-ray lens • Mono capillary • … and more ...
PreFIX sample platforms • Fixed platforms • Stage for large samples • Non-ambient chambers • Texture cradles • Open Eulerian cradle • Capillary spinner • Spinner • … and more ...
PreFIX sample platforms New changer for 15 or 45 samples
PreFIX diffracted beam optics • Programmable receiving slit • Programmable or fixed anti-scatter slit • Collimators of 0.27, 0.18 and 0.09 • Position sensitive detector • … and more ...
Example of change between configurations • Two systems: • Capillary spinner system • Standard phase analysis • Contents of video presentation • Start: bare system • Build-up of capillary spinner system • Change from capillary spinner to standard phase analysis system
D q = 18" - 25" The capillary spinner Anti-scatter housing Soller slits Anti-scatter housing Hybrid monochromator Position Sensitive X-ray tube Detector (PSD) (line focus) Powder sample in capillary spinner Divergence slit
Conventional phase analysis Detector Soller slits Curved crystal monochromator Receiving slit (Graphite) Anti scatter slit X-ray tube Soller slits (line focus) Polycrystalline sample Beam mask Divergence slit
Another example • A complete powder crystallography laboratory: • capillary spinner for small amounts of powder with preferred orientation problems • focusing incident beam monochromator for flat powder samples • Is it possible to combine these systems?
The 1-reflection system Soller slits Receiving slit Detector Soller slits Irradiation slit Anti scatter slit X-ray tube (line focus) Polycrystalline sample Incident beam Programmable monochromator divergence slit
Can we combine these systems? Move tube tower from 1 to standard position
Can we combine these systems? • Exchange the divergence slit for the hybrid monochromator • Exchange the sample platform • Exchange the receiving slit for a position sensitive detector
Conclusions X’Pert PRO gives you the ultimate flexibility for handling various types of X-ray analysis Today & Tomorrow
