Short description of shared resource

Malvern Panaytical Empyrean Series 3 diffraction system configured for a very wide range of applications and experiments. The system is easy to use and at the same time allows you to get the highest quality results.

Possible analyzes:

  • Phase (qualitative) analysis of inorganic and organic powdery, solid and pasty materials
  • Structural and quantitative analysis by the Rietveld method
  • Phase quantitative and semiquantitative analysis
  • Study of structural changes under the influence of high temperature (up to 1200OC)
  • Phase analysis of thin films (crystalline and amorphous)
  • Sample mapping (microdiffraction) with a spot size of 100 microns
  • Determination of nanoparticles' size, shape and size distribution by the low-angle scattering method (SAXS) for samples that can be solids, powders, emulsions, colloids, solutions of macromolecules of low concentrations, pasty material, etc.
  • 2D SAXS for determining the order and orientation of nanoparticles
  • Reflectometry for determining the thickness, roughness and density of thin films and multilayer thin film systems
  • 2D GISAXS method for studying thin films, especially films consisting of nanoparticles or nanostructures
  • Computed tomography (CT) of small objects with 3D reconstruction
  • Determination of crystallite size
  • Determination of residual stress in the material (Residual Stress)
  • Analysis of the orientation of crystallites in the material (Texture)
