High-performance SAXS / WAXS
The Empyrean Nano edition is a hybrid laboratory instrument that enables for a unique
combination of various advanced X-ray scattering techniques on a single platform.
Small- and wide-angle X-ray scattering are the main applications.
SAXS / WAXS features:
Intensity [a.u.]
• Compact and easy to use
T = 5 °C
• Evacuated beam path
T = 70 °C
• Temperature control
irreversible aggregation
• High sensitivity
at elevated temperature
• Short measurement times
• 1D and 2D collimation
• High resolution detectors
Dilute protein solution

The Empyrean Nano edition is the only
SAXS instrument that comes with a high-resolution
goniometer and the possibility to easily exchange different hardware modules, ensuring
maximum flexibility.

High-resolution hybrid pixel area detectors
The performance of the Empyrean Nano edition is largely driven by PANalytical’s detector
technologies. GaliPIX3D allows you to achieve best quality PDF data with ultimate speed.
High spatial resolution
Very low noise
High linearity
High detection efficiency
Light and compact

Summary
Like no other instrument on the market, the Empyrean Nano edition offers the unique
combination of USAXS, 1D and 2D SAXS / WAXS and total scattering (PDF) techniques.
With an accessible scattering vector q-range
of almost five decades it allows to probe
Bragg spacings from sub-Angstrom to almost
two microns. This makes the Empyrean Nano
edition an ideal tool for analyzing structures
and dimensions of (nano-)materials on multiple
length scales.
Typical samples that can be analyzed
include nanoparticles, colloids, polymers,
protein solutions, surfactants, liquid crystals,
nanocomposites, and porous materials.
