=XRD at Nanolab=
<i> Unless otherwise stated, this page is written by <b>DTU Nanolab internal</b></i>
We have two XRD setups in building 346:
 
*The [[/XRD_SmartLab|Rigaku SmartLab]] primarily for thin film analysis
 
*The [[/XRD_Powder|XRD Powder setup]] primarily for analysis of bulk materials and powders
=XRD at DTU Nanolab=
We have three X-ray diffraction setups in building 346:
*The [[/XRD_SmartLab|XRD SmartLab]] primarily for thin film analysis inside the cleanroom.
*The [[/XRD SmartLab 9kW Rotating Anode|XRD SmartLab 9kW Rotating Anode]] multipurpose system outside the cleanroom.
*The [[/XRD_Powder|XRD Powder]] for phase analysis of powders outside the cleanroom.
 
==Experiments performed with XRD==
*[[/Process Info|List and description of possible XRD measurements with typical setup requirements]] Note mostly relevant for XRD Smartlab and XRD Rot Anode
 
==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.

*[[/dataconversion|Converting data from XRD Powder to SmartLab Studio II]]
*[[/SLSII_analysis|Guide for using SmartLab Studio II for data analysis]]
*[[/HighScore_analysis|Guide for using HighScore Plus for advanced powder data analysis]]
*[[/XRD_Reference_Data|How to download reference spectra for individual crystal structures]] (for DTU users and others with access to the ICSD).
 
Apart from commercial software a wide range of free software is available online for data analysis. Please let us know if you find something you'd like to recommend!
