- POWDER XRD
Powder X-ray Diffraction – Rigaku SmartLab 3 X-ray Diffractometer
-
- Discovery of crystalline substances acting as 3-D diffraction gratings for X-ray wavelengths by Max von Laue in 1912
- X-Ray Diffraction is used to determine phase composition, quantitative phase analysis, unit cell lattice parameters, crystal structure, average crystallite size of particles, crystallite microstrain, texture, etc.
- Powder XRD can be done for Polycrystalline samples used for both bulk and thin film specimens
- SEM
High Resolution Scanning Electron Microscope with Energy Dispersive X-ray Analysis Facility – Zeiss EVO10 HRSEM with LaB6
- Possibility of both tungsten and LaB6 sources
- Spectral resolution of 3 nm at 30 kV and 8 nm at 3 kV
- Determination of size & shape of nanostructured materials with surface morphology down to 20 nm
- Compositional determination using Energy Dispersive X-ray analysis at individual location/areal distribution/interface for both conducting and non-conducting samples
