x射线晶体学中心

The x射线晶体学中心 was fully renovated in November 2007 and houses a single-crystal X-ray diffraction system, a brand-new 布鲁克D8风险投资 diffractometer, providing X-ray diffraction tools for structural characterization of small molecules (organic, 无机及有机金属). X-ray structure analysis of small-molecule are conducted primarily on single crystals submitted by researchers within the university. 作为扩展服务, the facility also accepts sample submissions from research organizations outside the university.

学生 are encouraged to learn to operate the instrumentation, 自己收集数据, 并解决他们自己的结构. Practical training, supervision, advice, and assistance are provided by the facility director. The art and science of X-ray crystallography are introduced as a graduate/undergraduate course. Graduate students and post-docs who have completed in-house training may work independently. Undergraduate students generally work directly with the facility director.

布鲁克D8风险投资

小分子衍射仪

The facility maintains a state-of-the-art 布鲁克D8风险投资 fully automated single crystal diffractometer, duo wavelength system with high brightness ImuS molybdenum and copper source, coupled with a PHOTON II CPAD detector. This system can obtain charge density quality data with Mo radiation and exploit all the advantages of Cu wavelength for absolute structure determination and diffraction experiments on ever smaller organic crystals. Low temperature device used is an Oxford 800 series Cryostream system with temperature range of 80-400 K. An LEICA M125 stereo zoom microscope is used to view and mount crystals. The X-ray Crystallographic Facility also includes a Crystal Growth Laboratory, equipped to aid students in obtaining crystals suitable for structure determination.

The facility has two Dell Precision workstations for data collection, 结构解决与细化. 软件包包括APEX4, TWINABS, CELL_NOW, ROTAX, 普拉登, WINGX, and a license for the Cambridge Structural Database™ (CSD).


服务

The X-Ray Crystallography Center operates on a 24/7 schedule.

服务 is provided for all aspects of small molecule crystallography:

  • 结晶
  • Sample examination and evaluation (optical and diffraction)
  • 数据收集和简化  
  • 结构解决与细化 
  • 演示文稿图形准备 
  • Preparation of tables and cif files for publication
  • File submission to the Cambridge Structural Database™

Turn around time is highly dependent on crystal quality and size.
