    X-ray crystallography is a technique in crystallography in which the pattern produced by the diffraction of x-rays through the closely spaced lattice of atoms in a crystal is recorded and then analyzed to reveal the nature of that lattice.

Materials Research Diffractometer (MRD): system available for X-ray diffraction studies for:
- advanced materials science and nanotechnology
- metrologic characterization in semiconductor process development
It can handle a wide range of applications, and is especially suitable for thin film analysis applications such as:
- rocking curve analysis and reciprocal space mapping
- reflectometry and thin film phase analysis
- residual stress and texture analysis
