Single crystal X-ray diffraction

Describing different access modes for SCS

Highlights from starting SCS till now. Homepage for SCS is live In April 2025 we had the first information online about SCS. We continued to build the homepages with more information to attract customers. First users of SCS In February 2025 SCS had their first users. Our first user were propriety access and we used

The Scandinavian Crystallography Service (SCS) is a single crystal X-ray diffraction service for chemical crystallography and materials science. SCS is a mail-in one-stop shop for industry and academics. The SCS aims to reduce the entry-barrier and lead time to obtain state-of-the-art synchrotron diffraction data. How to contact SCS? Academic and industrial users can access SCS

First Light is expected in 2026! Single crystal X-ray diffraction is the preferred technique to solve the atomic structure of a crystalline material. It is now a routine technique in many research laboratories, however, the limited flux, spectral purity and focusing ability of a lab-source severely limits the size and quality of the crystals that
