XRD sample holder

In 1912, Max von Laue made the groundbreaking discovery that crystalline substances can serve as three-dimensional diffraction gratings for X-ray wavelengths, utilizing the spacing of planes within a crystal lattice. This discovery paved the way for X-ray diffraction, which has become a widely used technique for investigating crystal structures and atomic spacing. X-ray diffraction relies on the constructive interference of monochromatic X-rays with a crystalline sample. These X-rays are produced by a cathode ray tube, filtered to create monochromatic radiation, collimated for concentration, and directed toward the sample. The diffracted rays are then collected for analysis. The angle between the incident and diffracted rays plays a critical role in all diffraction methods. While powder and single crystal diffraction differ in terms of instrumentation, this angle remains a fundamental component of all diffraction processes.

Application of XRD sample holder

X-ray powder diffraction is most widely used for the identification of unknown crystalline materials (e.g. minerals, inorganic compounds). Determination of unknown solids is critical to studies in geology, environmental science, material science, engineering and biology.

Other applications include:

  • characterization of crystalline materials
  • identification of fine-grained minerals such as clays and mixed layer clays that are difficult to determine optically
  • determination of unit cell dimensions
  • measurement of sample purity

Advantages of the XRD Sample Holder

  • Powerful and rapid (< 20 min) technique for identification of an unknown mineral
  • In most cases, it provides an unambiguous mineral determination
  • Minimal sample preparation is required
  • XRD units are widely available
  • Data interpretation is relatively straight forward

FAQ

What is a handheld XRF analyzer?

A handheld XRF analyzer, also known as a handheld X-ray fluorescence spectrometer, is a portable device used for elemental analysis. It provides fast and accurate results without the need to destroy samples, making it convenient for various industries.

What type of sample holder is used in XRD?

Sample requirements for powder XRD vary with the nature of the material. A typical sample holder is a 2 mm thick aluminum plate with a 20 mm square hole in the center. For materials that diffract strongly (many inorganic materials), Scotch tape is placed over the hole with the sticky side up.

What equipment is used for XRD?

X-ray diffractometers consist of three basic elements: an X-ray tube, a sample holder, and an X-ray detector. X-rays are generated in a cathode ray tube by heating a filament to produce electrons, accelerating the electrons toward a target by applying a voltage, and bombarding the target material with electrons.

How much sample is required for XRD analysis?

Ideally, 2 g is required, but this can be as small as 20 mg, depending on the analysis required. The XRD lab has an agate mortar and pestle along with a micronising mill to reduce the particle size of crystalline samples. Small test sieves (32 - 500 um) are also available to determine particle size.

What are the main applications of handheld XRF analyzers?

Handheld XRF analyzers are used in multiple fields including metal material testing (e.g., military, aerospace, steel), environmental protection (e.g., soil, water, air analysis), construction (e.g., building material quality control), and archaeology (e.g., cultural relics protection). They help in identifying elemental composition, ensuring material quality, and monitoring environmental pollutants.

How does a handheld XRF analyzer work?

A handheld XRF analyzer works through four main steps: emission of X-rays, excitation of the sample causing it to fluoresce, measurement of the emitted X-rays by the detector, and analysis of the energy spectrum to determine the elements present and their quantities.

What are the advantages of using a handheld XRF analyzer?

The advantages include portability, ease of use on-site, non-destructive testing without the need for sample preparation, short detection times for reliable results, and minimal maintenance costs. They also offer a wide range of tools and a built-in alloy library for comprehensive analysis.

Can handheld XRF analyzers be used for all elements?

Handheld XRF analyzers can measure a wide range of elements, typically from phosphorus to plutonium (P–Pu) on the periodic table. However, they may not be suitable for every element in the periodic table.

How fast can a handheld XRF analyzer provide results?

Handheld XRF analyzers can provide results within 1-2 seconds for alloy grade identification, making them highly efficient for on-site use.

Are handheld XRF analyzers suitable for environmental monitoring?

Yes, handheld XRF analyzers are suitable for environmental monitoring. They can quickly analyze heavy metal content in soil, water, and air samples, helping to detect and address environmental pollution issues.

Do handheld XRF analyzers require extensive training to use?

No, handheld XRF analyzers are designed for ease of use, requiring minimal training. Their intuitive interfaces and simple menu navigation make them accessible even for minimally trained users.
