Why Choose Glass XRD Sample Holders?
Glass sample holders are commonly used in routine powder XRD experiments. The recessed sample area helps contain powdered specimens and provides a defined space for sample loading.
Selecting the correct holder geometry is important for sample positioning and repeatable diffraction measurements. Factors such as holder dimensions, sample chamber depth, specimen quantity, and instrument configuration should be considered before choosing a holder.
For measurements requiring minimal substrate-related diffraction background, a specialized low-background or zero-background holder may be preferable.

Customizable options may include:
-
Holder length, width, and thickness
-
Round or square sample chambers

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a glass XRD sample holder used for?
A glass XRD sample holder supports powdered specimens during X-ray diffraction measurements. It is commonly used for crystalline phase identification and material characterization.
What is the difference between square and circular sample chambers?
Both geometries are used to contain powdered samples. The appropriate choice depends on the sample amount, instrument configuration, and experimental requirements.
Are these XRD sample holders compatible with Bruker, Rigaku, and Shimadzu instruments?
AMO Scientific offers dimension options listed for these instrument brands. Compatibility depends on the specific diffractometer model and mounting configuration. Please confirm dimensions before purchasing.
Can I order a custom XRD sample holder?
Yes. AMO Scientific offers customization options for holder dimensions, sample chamber configurations, and materials. Contact us with your specifications for a quotation.
