The State University of New York College at Plattsburgh will purchase equipment and software to automate and upgrade an existing manual x-ray diffractometer. A microprocessor controller, diffracted beam monochrometer, microcomputer, control and data collection software, minerals database, and search/match software will permit fully automated collection and analysis of x-ray data. The upgraded facility will be used to improve instruction in courses in x-ray crystallography, x-ray analysis, water quality analysis, and soil analysis. In addition, the upgraded x-ray diffractometer will be used by undergraduate students in independent research projects. SUNY, Plattsburgh will match the NSF grant with an equal amount of funds.

位于普拉茨堡的纽约州立大学学院将购买设备和软件，以自动化和升级现有的手动X射线衍射仪。微处理器控制器、衍射束单色仪、微型计算机、控制和数据收集软件、矿物数据库和搜索/匹配软件将使X射线数据的收集和分析完全自动化。升级后的设施将用于改善X射线结晶学、X射线分析、水质分析和土壤分析课程的教学。此外，升级后的X射线衍射仪将供本科生在自主研究项目中使用。纽约州立大学，普拉茨堡将与NSF的拨款相匹配，提供同等数额的资金。
