Description of the method
A single-crystal diffractometer measures the diffraction angles and intensities of an X-ray beam on crystalline materials, from which their crystal structure can be determined. Low-temperature measurements enable the analysis of sensitive or easily decomposable crystals.
Examples of applications
- Structural characterisation of new inorganic and organic compounds
- Validation of theoretical calculations and models
- Verification of crystal quality
- Phase determination
