Welcome to the X-Ray Diffraction Facility
We maintain a facility for determining crystal structures of compounds of interest to members of the department. Use of our Rigaku XtaLAB Synergy-R DW – Single Crystal X-Ray diffractometer (SC XRD) permits the structural solution of approximately 500 crystal structures per year.
