Small Molecule X-ray Crystallography

Benefits of using Small Molecule X‑ray Crystallography at Diamond

• Expert support: Users benefit from a dedicated team of scientific experts who assist in maximising the value of their experiments.
• Energy tuneable beams: Enabling you to apply anomalous scattering methods with ease.
• High photon flux: Perfect for data collection from weakly diffracting or very small crystals
• Low divergence: Reducing peak widths to ensure the weakest diffraction spots (reflections) stand out from the background
• Advanced detector technologies: Enabling rapid and reliable high-resolution data collection.
• Cutting-edge robotics: Streamlining the efficient handling of multiple crystals
• Specialised equipment: Enabling real-time, in-situ studies of structural changes under external stimuli, revealing how materials adapt to different conditions
• High resolution and rapid data collection: to uncover information beyond the reach of traditional methods and avoid costly re-crystallisation processes
