Single-crystal x-ray structural analysis device and method, and sample holder therefor

Abstract

Provided are a single-crystal X-ray structural analysis device that makes it possible to surely and easily perform single-crystal X-ray structural analysis using a crystal sponge, and a method and a sample holder therefor. The present invention is provided with: an X-ray source that generates X rays; a sample holder 250 that holds a sample; a goniometer that has the sample holder 250 mounted thereon so as to rotate the sample holder 250; an X-ray irradiation unit that irradiates the sample held by the sample holder 250 mounted to the goniometer with X rays from the X-ray source; an X-ray detection measurement unit that detects and measures X rays diffracted or scattered by the sample; a structural analysis unit that performs structural analysis of the sample on the basis of the diffracted or scattered X rays detected by the X-ray detection measurement unit. The sample holder 250 includes a porous complex crystal capable of occluding the sample in a plurality of micropores formed inside. In a state where the sample holder 250 is mounted to the goniometer, the porous complex crystal is fixed to a position of the sample holder 250 where X rays from the X-ray irradiation unit are emitted.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a next-generation single crystal X-ray structure analysis device capable of analyzing the structure of a material through a microscopic aggregate structure such as the arrangement of its atoms and molecules, and its method. A single crystal X-ray structure analysis device and method for a processing tool for preparing a crystal sample and a sample holder used therefor. Background technique [0002] In the research and development of new devices and materials, synthesis of materials, evaluation of materials, and determination of the next research policy based on these are often carried out. In the structural analysis of substances using X-ray diffraction for material development in a short period of time, in order to efficiently search for the material structure of the function / physical properties of the material that realizes the target, the structural analysis of substances can efficiently perform structural analysis ...
