Bruker AXS introduces the D8 Advance Plus X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) solution.
It is designed to investigate epitaxial and polycrystalline thin films, large and oddly shaped bulk specimens, as well as microto macro-amounts of powder samples under ambient and non-ambient conditions. The Trio optic is combining the three most commonly used X-ray diffraction geometries in one single optic: divergent beam for X-Ray Powder Diffraction (XRPD); high intensity parallel beam for capillary experiments, height insensitive measurements, surface sensitive grazing incidence geometry, coating thickness determination and micro-diffraction; and pure Cu-Ká1 parallel beam for High-Resolution XRay Diffraction (HRXRD) of epitaxial thin films and low symmetry powder samples.
