The Rigaku SmartLab is a versatile, multipurpose diffractometer for measurements on a wide range of samples. The SmartLab has a rotating anode X-ray source which gives orders of magnitude more flux than a sealed tube, boosting the observed signal in powder diffraction, grazing-incidence (GIXD), X-ray reflectivity (XRR), and high-resolution diffraction (HRXRD) measurements. For HRXRD applications, the SmartLab is also equipped with an in-plane detector arm which enables measurements on fully in-plane reflections.
