Description
The Aeris X-ray diffractometer is a highly efficient, user-friendly benchtop instrument designed for ease of operation, featuring an intuitive built-in touch screen for streamlined control. Despite its compact size, the Aeris delivers data quality comparable to that of full-size, floor-standing X-ray diffractometers in both resolution and intensity. It utilizes a cobalt (Co) anode X-ray tube as the radiation source, ensuring high-quality diffraction data.
The sample stage is versatile, accommodating both random powders and oriented clay plates, making it ideal for a wide range of sample types and research applications. This makes the Aeris a valuable tool for both routine analysis and more complex material characterisations.
