The goniometer is unique in that its radius can be set to either 143 mm, for higher x-ray flux and therefore faster measurements, or 191 mm, for narrower diffraction peaks and thus higher resolution data. Proto’s AXRD Benchtop is customizable and can be configured to suit any application.

Once set, alignment will be maintained across stages, ensuring the instrument remains easy to use. With Proto’s universal mount, it is more convenient than ever to switch between these and other stages in the AXRD Benchtop. Note: often it is better to use a zero background plate as sample holder. Users can conduct experiments under vacuum or slight pressure (10 -1 to 1 bar), allowing for greater experimental diversity The more common applications of X-ray diffraction includes but not limited to. These stages also enable gas flow via hookup to any gas cylinder (dry air, N 2, etc.), as well as relative humidity experiments.

With the Anton Paar BTS temperature stages, users can run experiments up to 150☌ (BTS 150) or 500☌ (BTS 500).

This system is especially unique because of its ability to perform non-ambient diffraction experiments. These are fitted to the analytical requirements and guarantee best possible data quality. In addition, users can customize the system with their choice of detector. XRD Specimen Holders Bruker AXS offers numerous dedicated solutions for the different types of specimen. With options for standard six- or eight-sample changers, bulk sample holders, deep cups for single-sample spinners, and zero-background holders, the AXRD Benchtop can accommodate sample holders for any application.
