  • Samples that change fast in air (then the D8 Focus may be better to use, due to the booking system)
  • Samples that doesn't fit the standard sample holdersMeasurements where you want to avoid the Kα2 contributions (then the A-unit is recommended)

  • Bragg-Brentano geometry

  • θ–θ operating mode

  • 2.5° primary and secondary Soller slits
  • Data collection from 5 to 105° 2θ (typically)

  • Variable divergence slit: "V6" means that the divergence slit (the slit between the X-ray source and the sample) opens automatically such that the illuminated length on the sample always remains 6 mm).

Well-suited for studying the structure of polycrystalline films on substrates.

  • Göbel mirror → parallel beam
  • Incident angle fixed at grazing angle (for example 0.5 to 3°)
  • Scanning detector angle (typically 5 to 80 degrees 2θ)
