A new quality in in-house X-ray reflectometry

Special features

A new quality in X-ray diffractometry - secondary parallel beam optics

Better resolution than soller slits because of a more than two times lower angular acceptance
(Cu K
a: DF < 0.03°)

Twin Mirror Arrangement

Powder diffraction measurements in the angular range of the quartz triplet in parallel beam geometry (TMA) (a) and BRAGG-BRENTANO geometry (b)

X-ray reflectometry: Independence of peak intensities and angular positions at three different stage heights

superior Kb suppression (I Cu Ka1 : I Cu Kb > 1.000.000 : 1 (q – 2q – scan at Si (400) wafer))
