Sample environment
Standard setups are furnace for capillaries (from room temperature up to 1218 K) and a closed-cycle cryostat (10-330 K) with controlled helium atmosphere in the sample chamber for either flat samples in reflection geometry or capillaries. In addition, dedicated setups have been developed for specific in situ studies, e.g. electrochemical cells for the investigation of Li-ion battery materials under real operation conditions, a high-voltage supply for the electric cycling of piezoceramics at ambient or elevated temperatures and reaction chambers for active materials in heterogeneous catalysis. Eulerian cradle with xyz-table can be used for precise sample alignment.
Furthermore, equipment for hydrogen loading from gaseous atmosphere or aqueous base solutions is integrated and supported. This equipment belongs to the research group "Thermodynamik und Kinetik von nanoskaligen Materialien - Wasserstoff in Metallen" from Institut für Materialphysik (Universitaet Goettingen).
