Diffractometer and method for diffraction analysis.

摘要

Diffractometer comprising: - an analytical unit (9) supporting a source (7) of a radiation beam, having a collimation axis (10); and a detector (8) of radiation beam having a reception axis (11), said axes of collimation (11) and receiving (10) converging in a center of the diffractometer (12) which is fixed with respect to said unit analytical (9); - means (16, 31, 32, 33) for moving said analytical unit in the space; - means (20, 20 ') for rotating said source and detector around said center of the diffractometer so that said collimation axis (11) and said reception axis (10) are kept in an equatorial plane, fixed with respect to said first analytical unit (9); common - a structure common sliding support (14) supporting said analytical unit (9) - means (27) for moving said analytical unit with respect to said sliding support (14), so that the analytical unit ( 9) can rotate around an equatorial axis (15) contained in said equatorial plane and passing through said center of the diffractometer (12); wherein said means (27) for moving said analytical unit with respect to said sliding support (14) allow the rotation of said source (7) and detector (8) around said equatorial axis (15), without the Finally change its position in space.
