ALPHA DIFFRACTOMETER

An X-ray diffractometer system analyzes objects including biological tissue samples and physical and chemical samples. The diffractometer system includes an X-ray beam projector that projects an incident micro-beam of X-ray at an analysis target, an X-ray receiver including an X-ray detector array to detect the transmitted X-rays passed through the object and X-rays that the target diffracts, and a computer workstation for system control and data analysis. The X-ray beam projector may include a radiation source, a beam forming system including at least one of a monochromator, a collimator, and focusing device. The computer workstation may control the X-ray devices and positioning mechanisms and motors, may acquire, process, store, or display data received from diffractometric examination, and may also calculate parameters of the three-dimensional reciprocal lattice of the analyzed target.
