X – Ray Diffraction [XRD]
The D8 FOCUS is the key to the world of powder diffraction. Based on the D8 Series II technology, the D8 FOCUS meets our highest quality standards for uncompromising performance and data integrity. Hardware and software are optimized for easy operation.
The focusing Bragg-Brentano geometry with slits provides the best resolution for flat powder samples. For irregularly-shaped samples and non-ambient measurements, the parallel beam geometry with a Göbel mirror is the optimum setup.
The standard detector is the scintillation counter, with high dynamic range and low internal background.
X-ray diffraction with the D8 FOCUS can identify and quantify the different phases inside a powder sample. The same data also provides information on the crystallite size and the microstrain.
DIFFRAC.SUITE™ represents a new software platform offering a wide range of software modules for easy X-ray powder diffraction data acquisition and evaluation. Based on Microsoft's .NET technology, DIFFRAC.SUITE offers all the advantages of most modern software technology for maximum ease of use and networking.
The fully customizable user-interface is characterized by an ergonomic plug-in framework, providing for common look & feel and operation.
