Single Crystal X-ray Diffractometers
Diffractometers Designed for Every Level of Analytical Demand
Single Crystal X-ray Diffraction (SC-XRD) is one of the most powerful methods available for 3D structural determination at the atomic scale, enabling the deep examination of relationships between molecular structure, behavior and function.
Our range of single‑crystal X‑ray diffractometers deliver solutions tailored to any level of analytical demand - ranging from routine structure determination to advanced high‑performance experiments.
Our solutions are based on the D8 QUEST and D8 VENTURE diffractometer platforms and are organized into four classes - Economy, Efficiency, Performance, and Beamline - each defined by their performance and X‑ray source technology.
