Automated Multipurpose X-RAY Diffractometer (XRD)
with Guidance Software

Powder diffraction, thin film metrology, SAXS, in-plane scattering, operando measurements

Rigaku SmartLab® is the newest and most novel high-resolution X-ray diffractometer (XRD) available today. Perhaps its most novel feature is the new SmartLab Studio II software, which provides the user with an intelligent User Guidance expert system functionality that guides the operator through the intricacies of each experiment. It is like having an expert standing by your side.

TA Instruments TGA 5500

Ultimate performance to meet the requirements of the most demanding applications.

The TGA 5500 is designed for the researcher that requires the highest level of performance and features in one package. Built to maximize temperature control and minimize drift, the TGA 5500 has less drift than any competitive TGA – even after they use post-test data manipulation! The TA patented IR furnace delivers the fastest heating and cooling rates available. The all new autosampler makes high productivity standard.

UV-Vis spectrophotometer with integrating sphere

Scalability to near-infrared measurement. Ultra-low stray light enables measurements down to absorbance values of 8 Abs.

The compact UV-2600i/2700i is a universal, research-grade spectrophotometer that can be used in a wide range of fields, and easily expanded to suit the measurement objective. By using the optional integrating sphere, the measurement wavelength range of the UV-2600 can be extended to the near-infrared region of 1400 nm. The UV-2700 is capable of 8-Abs measurements, and optimal for measuring low transmittance samples. LabSolutions UV-Vis is a next-generation Shimadzu UV control software pursuing efficiency of analysis. LabSolutions UV-Vis software with easy-to-use is included as standard.

XPS System Module for Electron Spectroscopy, FlexPS

The specially designed UHV chamber provides an optimized geometry for all electron spectroscopy applications. It allows a combination of XPS, UPS, AES and ISS methods with full performance for each method.

The heart of the photoelectron spectroscopy system FlexPS is a specially designed UHV chamber with an optimized geometry for all common electron- and ion spectroscopy applications. The chamber is made of μ-metal in order to optimize magnetic shielding and allow the highest energy resolution. For less sensitive applications, a stainless steel configuration is also available.The system base fits a variety of pumping configurations available to meet specified gas load and base pressure requirements. Thanks to the unique design, components can easily be added, upgraded and exchanged. Within the flexible system concept, different sample handling options can be chosen with respect to sample size, temperature range and manipulation possibilities.

Telight Q-Phase

Q-Phase is a quantitative label-free live-cell imaging system – ideal if you desire reliable automated segmentation and analysis of cell behavior. It is a holographic microscope optimized for real-time monitoring of living cells with minimal phototoxicity. Q-Phase easily transforms cell features and dynamics into reliable data for your analysis and correlations.

PerkinElmer Frontier FT-IR spectrometer

The PerkinElmer Frontier™ IR/FIR is a combined FT-IR spectrometer, covering the mid-infrared (8,300-350 cm⁻¹) and far-infrared (700-30 cm⁻¹) spectral ranges. The system’s research-grade performance and flexibility enable advanced experiments – from kinetics measurements to externally synchronized experiments, in Mid- and Far-IR.
