X-ray diffraction (XRD) allows one to ascertain the molecular structure of a crystalline material by diffracting X-rays through the sample. An XRD analyzer obtains interference patterns reflecting lattice structures by varying the angle of incidence of the X-ray beam. Thus, the precision, speed of rotation, and beam size of the X-rays become important parameters by which to judge products. Benchtop XRD can be targeted for single crystal diffraction for imaging lattices; powder diffraction for phase determination; identifying unfamiliar substances for use in inspection, crystallography, and pharmaceutical research correlating crystal structures with drug efficacy. X-ray generators can reach 18 KW in power and detectors typically come as compound silicon arrays, Peltier-Cooled, Silicon Drift, or Scintillation Counter variants. Software targeted for specific XRD applications is available for upgrade in some analyzer models.

| Description | The XtaLAB Synergy-R is the most powerful small molecule diffractometer available. It includes a high-flux, low-maintenance microfocus rotating anode, the PhotonJet-R, with a high-precision kappa goniometer and Rigaku’s own Hybrid Photon Counting (HPC) X-ray detector the HyPix-6000HE. The PhotonJet-The XtaLAB Synergy-R is the most powerful small molecule diffractometer available. It includes a high-flux, low-maintenance microfocus rotating anode, the PhotonJet-R, with a high-precision kappa goniometer and Rigaku’s own Hybrid Photon Counting (HPC) X-ray detector the HyPix-6000HE. The PhotonJet-R X-ray source is comprised of a Micromax-007 HF rotating anode and a newly designed optic. It is available with either Cu or Mo anodes.
This single crystal X-ray diffractometer has been specially designed to fully integrate the rotating anode X-ray source with all system components and software making it a sleek, simple to use diffractometer without compromising the X-ray intensity.
For labs with high-throughput requirements, increasing the flux reduces data collection time and thus increases the number of samples that can be studied in your laboratory. For extremely small samples, additional flux will extend the minimum size limits for crystals that you can study.
Features: - True shutterless data collection
- Noise-free HPC X-ray detector for better measurement of weak data
- 4-circle kappa goniometer with high accuracy and speed
- Fast workflow due to complete integration of software and hardware
- Excels at the most challenging applications, e.g. MOFs or incommensurate structures
- Extremely high performance due to bright source, noise-free detector and fast goniometer speeds
- Provides unparalleled throughput
- Compact design to fit in your laboratory
