Instrument's Description

X-ray Diffraction (XRD) is a high-tech, non-destructive technique for analysing a wide range of materials, including metals, minerals, polymers, catalysts, plastics, pharmaceuticals, thin-film coatings, ceramics, solar cells and semiconductors. Throughout industry and research institutions, XRD has become an indispensable method for materials investigation, characterization and quality control. More specifically, areas of application include qualitative and quantitative phase analysis, crystallography, structure determination, texture and residual stress investigations.
