XR 4.0 X-ray structural analysis upgrade set

Function and Applications

Upgrade set as an extension of the XRE 4.0 X-ray expert set (09110-88). This set is particularly suitable for the structural analysis of different types of samples in materials physics, chemical analysis, and mineralogy.

The set covers the following experiments and topics:

• Fluoroscopy and X-ray imaging
• Debye-Scherrer analyses and images
• Laue diffraction patterns
• Fundamental principles of  X-ray spectroscopy
• Bragg reflection, Bragg-Brentano geometry
• Bremsspectrum
• Determination of Planck's quantum of action
• X-ray diffractometry
• Texture analyses of grown materials
• Monochromatisation of  X-rays
• Analysis of crystals with different crystal structures: cubic, hexagonal, tetragonal, diamond, BCC, and FCC

Benefits

• Material analyses with different techniques: diffractometric and photographic analyses
• Samples of different structures: monocrystalline and polycrystalline samples, powder crystallites

Equipment and Technical Data

The set includes the following components:

• Geiger-Müller counter tube, type B with holder
• Optical bench expert with accessories
• XR 4.0 X-ray LiF crystal in a holder

• XR 4.0 X-ray KBr crystal in a holder

• XR 4.0 X-ray NaCl monocrystals, set of 3
• XR 4.0 X-ray diaphragm tube with Ni foil
• XR 4.0 X-ray diaphragm tube with Zr foil
• XR 4.0 X-ray crystal holder for Laue images
• XR 4.0 X-ray universal crystal holder for the X-ray unit
