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.

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.
