Home Facilities Single Crystal X-Ray Diffractometer (SCXRD)

Make: Bruker AXS GmbH, Germany

Model: Bruker D8 QUEST

  • Unit cell determination.
  • Variable temperature data collection (80 –400K).
  • Structure solution, refinement, and interpretation.
  • Determination of molecular structure, atomic coordinates, molecular orientation and packing of molecules in crystals.
  • Precise information about internal lattice including Unit cell dimensions, bond lengths, bond angles and details of site ordering.
  • Identification of newer materials, their crystal solution and refinement.
  • Characterization of cation –anion coordination.
  • Used to cover all typical single crystal applications from chemical crystallography to structural biology.
