Photon III X-ray detector for metal jet diffractometer

单晶x射线衍射是一种强大的技术，它使我们能够确定和可视化分子和材料的结构。目前安装在蒙特里萨大学的金属射流衍射仪包含单晶衍射仪中最亮的x射线源。这是北美第一个这样的装置，也是加拿大唯一一个用于分子结构的金属射流衍射仪。在这个应用程序中要求的新的，显着更敏感的探测器允许x射线衍射中心分析更小的晶体，并为我们的研究客户提供更多更好的结构数据。******深入了解实际的分子结构，分子的几何形状和相对方向，对于理解是什么激发了化合物和材料的反应性和性质至关重要。因此，这种新设备推动并推动了药物化学和药物开发、生物化学、催化、光收集设备、先进材料等研究项目的发展。**

Single-crystal X-ray diffraction is a powerful technique which enables us to determine and visualize the structures of molecules and materials. The Metaljet diffractometer currently installed at the Université de Montréal contains the brightest available X-ray source for single-crystal diffractometers. It was the first such installation in North-America and remains the only metaljet diffractometer for molecular structures in Canada. The new, significantly more sensitive detector requested in this application allows the X-ray diffraction center to analyse smaller crystals and makes more and better structural data available to our research clients. ******The insights gained into the actual molecular structures, the geometries and relative orientations of molecules, are essential to understand what motivates the reactivity and properties of compounds and materials. This new equipment thus drives and enables developments in research programs in medicinal chemistry and drug development, biochemistry, catalysis, light-harvesting devices, advanced materials, and many more. **
