Application Form

Sample requirement

1. Must have a single, robust (stable) sample, generally between 50-250 microns in size

2. Optically clear sample

3. For a typical crystal, a pre-experiment lasting less than 5minutes is recorded to evaluate the crystal quality. From the first frame of data, CrysAlisPro automatically evaluates the crystal quality and provides the user with information regarding the unit cell, angular resolution and suggested frame exposure time.
