| STOE “GEORGE” | – Mo Kα1-radiation – Primary beam monochromator – DECTRIS Mythen PSD linear detector – Debye-Scherrer (transmission) geometry – Capillary sample holder or flat sample holders – Automatic capillary changer for up to 10 non-air sensitive samples in capillaries with OD ≤ 0.5 mm. | – HT1 furnace (RT – 900˚C, open-end quartz capillary OD = 0.5 mm only) | – Full training is provided for new users. -Upon request, the automatic capillary sample changer can be installed for measurements of up to 10 non-air sensitive capillaries of outer diameter ≤ 0.5 mm; capillaries must retain their funnel for installation into the sample changer. – Upon request, HT1 furnace can be installed only on Friday afternoon for measurements over weekend. |
| STOE “RINGO” | – Mo Kα1-radiation – Primary beam monochromator – DECTRIS Mythen PSD linear detector – Debye-Scherrer (transmission) geometry – Capillary sample holder or flat sample holders | – Cryostream (-193 ˚C (80 K) – 200˚C) – HT2 furnace (RT –1450˚C, non-corrosive very small gas flow) – battery holder (RT only) | – For measurements with Cryostream, the sample can be either in ordinary capillary or in capillary which is sealed under protective atmosphere (i.e. Ar, N2 etc.). – For measurements with HT2 furnace, the sample must be in the special flow capillary tube with custom dimensions; tubes are different (quartz, sapphire) depending on the necessary temperature range. |
