Product Information

These ultra-transparent mounts meet the challenges of visualizing, aligning, and collecting diffraction data from micron size crystals. Using dual-thickness technology, crystals are supported on a 3 micron thick film in a 10 micron thick frame. An aerodynamic design combined with a reduced tip length minimizes sample motion. MicroCrystal Mounts provide an unsurpassed combination of X-Ray transparency and rigidity.

Each design is currently available in two versions: one with a smooth top surface and the 10 micron thick outer “rib” on the bottom surface, and one with the outer rib projecting out on the upper surface.

The MicroCrystal Mounts™ are sold as an assortment consisting of 24 pins in two separate boxes. It includes 2 pins of each model.

MicroCrystal Mounts™ are built on 18 mm / SPINE length rods (pins), which are now standard at nearly all synchrotron beam lines in the world. Other pin lengths are also available: (11mm, 19mm, and 25mm)

We strongly recommend using heavy-duty, serrated-tip tweezers to handle MicroCrystal Mounts™.

MicroCrystal Mounts™ are compatible with all standard X-ray hardware and can be inserted in 0.7 mm mechanical pencils or micromanipulators for easy handling.
