X-Ray Diffraction Course Part-1: Powder diffraction (2)
September 15 - 19, 2025 | 10:00-17:00 | In person | Almelo, The Netherlands
About The Event
COURSE CONTENT: The 5-day course will be held in the Application Competence Center of Malvern Panalytical (Almelo, The Netherlands), and it will cover the fundamental and practical aspects of X-Ray Powder Diffraction, with emphasis on hands-on on the Empyrean instrument, in conjunction with Data Collector and HighScore Plus software. This course can be followed-up by registering to the 5-day X-Ray Diffraction Course Part-2: Beyond powders - Analysis of bulk, thin films and nanoparticle samples, which covers advanced methods such as Residual Stress, Grazing Incidence X-Ray Diffraction (GI-XRD), X-Ray Reflectivity (XRR) and Small-Angle X-Ray Scattering (SAXS). More detailed and advanced training on phase quantification and crystallographic analysis is available in the 3-day Rietveld Refinement Course. KEY BENEFITS: - help you to master the use of your instrument for powder diffraction - get the best results out of your instrument in terms of highest data quality - effective and reliable data analysis of powder diffraction data, in terms of phase identification and quantification of simple mixtures. This is a paid course at the rate of 700 Euro per participant per day. For in-person courses offered at Malvern Panalytical, travel and accommodation expenses are not included. Lunches are provided during in-person course days. Course registration will close 3 weeks prior to the course starting date, or as soon as the class is full.
