X-ray diffraction system XtaLAB Synergy

One of the advantages of Rigaku's rotating anode X-ray generators is the ability to utilize both ports of the generator simultaneously. This might involve having two single crystal goniometers mounted on the generator or it might involve having one goniometer with a sample changing robot on one port dedicated to protein crystallography and a second goniometer dedicated to chemical crystallography. In order to accommodate the various configurations that a researcher might envision, Rigaku offers the XtaLAB Synergy Custom, a system that can be configured with either a MicroMax-007 HF microfocus rotating anode source or the highest-flux in-house X-ray source, the FR-X. Additionally, the XtaLAB Synergy Custom comes in a specially designed enclosure with your choice of table size to accommodate accessory equipment, such as an ACTOR 2 robotic system or a microscope close to the goniometer. Thus, the versatility offered by the XtaLAB Synergy Custom system provides the most flexibility possible for your structural chemistry program. HPC direct detection X-ray detector XtaLAB Synergy Custom systems are configured with a Hybrid Photon Counting (HPC) X-ray detector, such as the HyPix-6000HE, the HyPix-Arc 150° or HyPix-Arc 100°. HPC detectors are ideal for difficult single crystal experiments because they are photon counting detectors that directly detect X-ray photons without the need for the intermediate step of converting X-ray photons to light with a phosphor or scintillator. As a result, HPCs have high dynamic range, fast readout speed and extremely low noise. Additionally, HPC X-ray detectors have a top-hat point spread function of a single pixel.
