Structural Biology

X-Ray Crystallography Facility

The purpose of the X-Ray Crystallography Facility is to structurally characterize single-crystal samples of organic, inorganic, and organometallic compounds using X-ray diffraction. Equipment and services include: a Bruker APEX DUO single-crystal diffractometer equipped with an APEX2 CCD detector, Mo fine-focus and Cu micro-focus X-ray sources and a Rigaku Ultima IV powder/thin film diffractometer to conduct rapid structural analysis. It is capable of handling samples that are sensitive to air, moisture, and/or temperature and the core provides training for users to conduct their own experiments.
