== XRD SmartLab ==
<i> Unless otherwise stated, this page is written by <b>DTU Nanolab internal</b></i>


The Rigaku SmartLab is an advanced XRD for measuring on thin films. All thin films can be measured without fixating the sample, as the system has a so called In-Plane arm.

For data analysis, we recommend using Rigaku SmartLab Studio for both thinfilms and basic powder analysis.
If more advanced powder analysis is needed we provide access to a remote desktop with a licence for the excellent Malvern Panalytical software, HighScore.

==Software for analysis==
The software packages used for data analysis are available on the equipment computer, but we recommend that you install it on your personal computer. To run the software you need a USB dongle with a license on, these can be borrowed from Rebecca and Kristian in room 347-077. We only have 9 dongles available, so when you are done please return the dongle to danchip.
 
The software can be found on "CleanroomDrive\_Equipment\XRD\Rigaku software\RILauncher", it should be possible to install the software without a dongle. To use the software you have to log in. The user is: Administrator. There is no password.

XRD at DTU Nanolab

We have two X-ray diffraction setups in building 346:

  • The XRD SmartLab primarily for thin film analysis inside the cleanroom.
  • The XRD Powder for phase analysis of powders outside the cleanroom.

Data analysis

For data analysis, we recommend using Rigaku SmartLab Studio for both thinfilms and basic powder analysis. If more advanced powder analysis is needed we provide access to a remote desktop with a licence for the excellent Malvern Panalytical software, HighScore.

Apart from this commercial software a wide range of free software is available online for data analysis. Here are some suggestions from MIT.
