XRD SmartLab

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.

The XRD SmartLab located in cleanroom F-2


The user manual(s), user APV(s), technical information, and contact information can be found in LabManager:

XRD SmartLab in LabManager


Various measurement types including X-Ray reflectivity, Rocking curve, Theta-2theta, and Pole figures are described here:

Process information

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 the equipment responsible (in 2020, these were Kristian, Evgeniy, and Rebecca). We only have 9 dongles available, so when you are done please return the dongle to Nanolab.

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.
