SAXS
Small-Angle X-Ray Scattering facility for materials characterization
Capabilities:
The SAXS laboratory consists of two small-angle x-ray scattering instruments ; a Bonse-Hart ultra small-angle x-ray scattering spectrometer (3 x 10-4
Angstrom-1 >q > 0.05 Angstrom-1) and a 5 meter pinhole instrument (3 x 10-3 Angstrom-1 > q > 0.7 Angstrom-1). By combining small-angle x-ray scattering (SAXS) data sets from
these two instruments, one can probe materials structure over nearly four decades in length scale (from a few Angstromngstroms to nearly a micrometer).
