SmartLab: Automated Multipurpose X-ray Diffractometer

Product Features 

 

High-accuracy theta-theta goniometer 

A theta-theta goniometer enables omega scans, 2-theta/omega scans, and 2-theta 
scans with the sample oriented horizontally (deviation from horizontal 
orientation may occur if sample orientation is adjusted). The horizontal 
positioning of a sample minimizes the distortion effects caused by weight in the 
case of a large wafer while reducing the possibility of a dropped sample. 
Additionally, the two axes are equipped with encoders to enable control of each 
axis at a resolution of 0.0001º. 

 

Attachment 

XY attachment for automated XY mapping or an RxRy attachment for sample 
tilt alignment to be conducted before in-plane or reciprocal space map (RSM) 
measurement. A newly developed connector allows easy changing of 
attachments. 

 

X-ray generator 

Even with a horizontal sample mount goniometer with a moving x-ray source, 
the product can incorporate a state of the art high-intensity 9 kW rotating anode 
x-ray generator. When combined with a multilayer mirror, this x-ray generator 
produces a high intensity x-ray beam (approx. 6 to 7 times the intensity provided 
by a sealed-tube system) equal to an 18-kW rotating anode x-ray generator, 
while reducing power consumption by 50% due to the high-brightness focal spot. 
The system also offers lower operating costs compared to earlier models. A 3

 

kW 

sealed tube x-ray generator can also be used with the SmartLab system. The 
specifications of each generator are summarized in the following table.
