The Rigaku SmartLab Powder Diffractometer is a fully automated, multipurpose X-ray diffraction (XRD) platform designed for comprehensive materials characterization. Supporting applications ranging from routine powder diffraction to thin film metrology, small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS), in-plane diffraction, and operando measurements, the system combines the high-flux PhotonMax 9 kW rotating anode X-ray source with the HyPix-3000 high-energy-resolution detector to deliver outstanding sensitivity, measurement speed, and analytical flexibility. Moreover, powered by SmartLab Studio II with intelligent Guidance functionality, the instrument simplifies complex XRD workflows by assisting users with instrument configuration and measurement setup, making advanced diffraction analysis more efficient and accessible.
