Bruker D8 Advance (WCRC)

X-Ray Diffractometer

Bruker D8 X-ray Diffractometer for Powder and Thin Film Analysis

The Bruker D8 X-ray diffractometer supports Bragg-Brentano, grazing incidence, and X-ray reflectivity (XRR) measurements. The instrument is equipped with a 9-position sample changer and an XYZ stage, and can be operated with a DOME for air-sensitive samples.

Selected Applications:
  • Bragg-Brentano XRD
  • Grazing Incidence XRD with parallel beam geometry
  • X-ray Reflectivity (XRR) measurements
  • Dome for air-sensitive measurements
  • 9-position automatic sample changer
