• X-ray Diffractometer (Universidad del Quindío)

Description of Equipment:

Equipment: X-ray Diffractometer
Maker: Bruker D8 Advance
Equipment Characteristics:
Vertical Goniometer, flash detector (NaI), tube with Cu anode, graphite at detector entrance, Ni filter for the Kb line of the Cu, nine-position sample holder.
Minimum step 2q: 0.001°
2q Range: up to 150°
Services: allows measuring diffractographs for powder samples, mono-crystals, and films in the Bragg-Brentano (q-2q) geometry, and in detector sweeping mode for a fixed incidence angle (scan detector). It is possible to determine the presence of crystalline phases, grain size, and the presence of amorphous component, presence of mechanical stress, preferential orientations, as well as the information gathered from a Riedvelt adjustment.
