STOE has developed a new type of diffractometer which is more flexible than any existing system without any loss in performance. The STADI MP combines the two most common diffractometer configurations: Transmission/Debye-Scherrer and Bragg-Brentano geometry with a set-up for micro-diffraction.

The very reliable, high-precision two circle goniometer is the basis of a whole range of x-ray powder diffraction solutions. Vertically or horizontally mounted, the STADI P can be built-up in Transmission/Debye-Scherrer or Bragg-Brentano geometry: Transmission/Debye-Scherrer, Reflection/ Bragg-Brentano or both. Two STADI P goniometers, either in the same or different configurations, can be mounted in the same cabinet resulting in two completely independent units. Moreover, two goniometers can share one source.

WHY MEASURE POWDER IN TRANSMISSION- / DEBYE-SCHERRER GEOMETRY?

1. Reliable intensities over the full 2Θ scale
2. Real microsampling possible
3. No height displacement
4. Smallest 2Θ angles possible (< 0.2° 2Θ)
5. Easy handling of air-/moisture sensitive or hazardous materials

Based on the well known STADI P, STOE has developed a new powder diffractometer for high-throughput and combinatorial measurements in transmission geometry. With its newly designed sample stage providing a variable x,y grid for various slide-in sample holders, eg. for up to 96 different samples, the STADI P COMBI offers highest efficiency combined with all the advantages of the STADI P system.

The STOE Powder Diffraction Software Package WinX^POW is a state-of-the-art 32-bit Windows application.

• Extremely user-friendly, easy to use, yet very flexible and powerful
• Two diffractometers can be operated simultaneously from one computer
• Results can easily be incorporated into standard Windows applications
• Liberal licence policy, free software updates for 3 years
• Complete package for data collection and evaluation

With this newsletter, we are proud to launch innovations for STOE powder and single crystal XRDs:

• NEW STOE SEARCH/MATCH 2 – the fully new developed WINXPOW application working with ICCD PDF2/PDF4 and COD
• NEW EIGER2 CdTe for STOE STADIVARI – watch the DECTRIS product launch with first-hand experiences made by STOE as an on-demand webinar.

At the same time, we are expanding our digital offers to stay in touch with you:

• UPCOMING WEBINARS – we are excited to continue our STOE Talks on December 3rd, featuring Mauro Gemmi, IIT Pisa / Italy, presenting the topic of combining P-XRD and 3D-ED techniques.
• APPLICATION REPORTS – a new website section describing advances made and experiences gained with STOE XRDs. Guo Peng of DICP China has now contributed to this series with his STADI P experiences in unravelling Brønsted acid sites.
• FIRST VIRTUAL STOE USER MEETING – we thank you for all the positive feedback received. The key talks are available now in our On-Demand Webinar section.
• VIRTUAL PRODUCT DEMONSTRATIONS – none of us would have imagined what’s possible to do online in these days. We have even completed the first remote system installation and performed several upgrades. So if you are interested to learn more about STOE and our products – don’t hesitate to contact us for your online product demonstration!

So it has been a year of change – probably more than ever, as the current pandemic continues. We truly hope that you and your families continue to do well in the upcoming year-end period.

With the possibility to be set-up vertically as well as horizontally, the STADIVARI increases its scope of application.

The STADIVARI can be used for single crystal and powder diffraction. The Open Eulerian Cradle offers enough space to add high pressure cells, high- or low- temperature devices or other chambers.

In the dual beam setup, all combinations of tubes and microfocus BDS are possible: two sealed tubes, one sealed tube and one microfocus BDS or two microfocus BDS.

As the youngest member of the long line of STOE diffractometers, the STADIVARI is fully integrated in the well-established STOE X-Area software package.

STOE’s IPDS 2T combines all the achievements of the IPDS II with the possibility to turn the whole goniometer around the Θ axis to an angle of up to 60° yielding a 2Θ_max of 137°! This additional axis makes the IPDS 2T a diffractometer of unique versatility. Featuring also the dual beam capability for using two different wavelengths on the same instrument the structure solution of small molecules and proteins as well as electron density determination and powder investigations are no challenge for the IPDS 2T.

Unparalleled reliability, built to serve all scientific needs: e.g. small molecules, proteins, electron density measurements. Full accessibility of the sample environment for easy adaptation of high and low temperature attachements as well as high pressure cells.

The new 32-bit software X-Area has been designed to work on all STOE Imaging Plate Detector Systems, the IPDS II, the IPDS 2T and the new STADIVARI equipped with the DECTRIS PILATUS detector. It includes the well known software tools:

• Recipe
• X-Shape
• X-Red³²
