The small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) facility at Duke University will be the first X-ray scattering instrument in the Research Triangle area of North Carolina. It will therefore serve a multidisciplinary community of researchers and provide the opportunity, for the first time, to train students in advanced scattering techniques.The SAXS facility at Duke University's Shared Materials Instrumentation Facility (SMIF) will serve three major universities in the area: Duke University, North Carolina State University, and University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. It will also be available to two historically black universities, North Carolina A&T State University, and North Carolina Central University, that currently utilize instrumentation at SMIF. The instrument will serve researchers in materials science, structural biology, polymer and colloidal chemistry, chemical and biomedical engineering, and textiles engineering. The instrument capabilities will be broad to address the different needs of the users, and include wide angle X-ray scattering (WAXS) and grazing incidence small angle X-ray scattering (GISAXS).

杜克大学的小角度 X 射线散射 (SAXS) 设施将成为北卡罗来纳州研究三角地区的第一台 X 射线散射仪器。因此，它将服务于多学科研究人员群体，并首次为学生提供高级散射技术培训的机会。杜克大学共享材料仪器设施 (SMIF) 的 SAXS 设施将服务于该地区的三所主要大学：杜克大学、北卡罗来纳州立大学和北卡罗来纳大学教堂山分校。它还将向两所历史悠久的黑人大学（北卡罗莱纳 A&T 州立大学和北卡罗莱纳中央大学）开放，这两所大学目前都在使用 SMIF 的仪器。该仪器将为材料科学、结构生物学、聚合物和胶体化学、化学和生物医学工程以及纺织工程的研究人员提供服务。该仪器功能广泛，可满足用户的不同需求，包括广角 X 射线散射 (WAXS) 和掠入射小角度 X 射线散射 (GISAXS)。
