The STOE STADI P Beam Optimization is a well-established tool of the WinXPOW software for a very long time. It automatically sets the Johann type monochromator to the maximum intensity of the Kα1-radiation of a sealed tube’s line focus by the help of a certified standard material – but the alignment of the goniometer axis into the beam path has still to be done manually with a luminescense screen.

Therefore, STOE offers the brand-new Beam Optimization 2.0 for the STADI P powder diffractometer. This unique auto adjustment tool aligns monochromator and goniometer automated to the Kα1-radiation, making any contact with the open beam or its air scattered radiation no longer necessary, no matter whether it is only the exchange of a worn-out tube by a new one with the same anode material or whether the radiation should be swapped to a different one.

The STOE Beam Optimization 2.0 is available for all typical anode materials (Co, Cu, Mo, Ag) but is currently only realized for horizontal setups, with plans for future availability in vertical configurations. Moreover, it can be integrated into existing horizontal STADI P diffractometers.
