The X-Ray
facility
at the
YSU Structure & Chemical Instrumentation
Facility is equipped with
several state of the art instruments for both single crystal and powder
diffraction, including a SMART
APEX CCD and a D8 Advance Powder
Diffractometer. Two single point detector Siemens P4 instruments
available on site are today
mainly used for teaching purposes. An S2
Ranger X-Ray Fluoresence spectrometer and
several light microscopes for sample mounting do complete the setup for your analytical
tasks in the field of
sophisticated solid state chemistry.
When at YSU, don't
forget to
visit the world class mineral collection at the Clarence R.
Smith Mineral Museum
with world class crystal specimens from major districts of the
world, unique mineral associations, specimens illustrating plant and
animal fossilations and much more. The Museum
is located in the lobby of Moser Hall on the YSU Campus, just across
from our location in Ward Beecher Science Hall.
