Diffractometer

The reconstructed Balzers Eldigraph KD-G2 (one of only two still existing ones worldwide) is presently in use in the laboratory. The most recent papers <bib id="BergerZFN2009" /> and <bib id="ReuterZNB2016" /> contain lots of details about this improved gas electron diffractometer.

Current state

History

Sector

A sin2-type sector (15 cm in diameter, common formula is A*sin2(r/B)) is used.

Pumps

Backing Pumps

Backing (fore-vacuum) pumps: Edwards x05 Scrollpump Oilfree, Edwards E2M80 oil pump and Edwards EH500 booster pump. Our last oilfree pump worked 48822.8 hours. On the pictures is the new one.

Inlet Systems

Room-temperature Nozzle

Inlet device for room temperatures (used by Heinz Oberhammer).
Nozzle tip.


Medium-temperature Nozzle

This nozzle has been constructed for evaporation of compounds in a temperature range from 25 to 380 °C. However, it has also been successfully used for low temperatures below -15 °C.

Valve for separation of the mass-detector and diffraction chamber.

Detection system

Imaging Plates (IP) are used for recording diffraction patterns. IPs are scanned with a Fuji BAS-1800II scanner and the signal is deleted using an eraser.
