With the birth of the third generation Empyrean Sharp Shadow, Marvin Panaco has redefined the concept of a multifunctional X-ray diffractometer. The newly designed "MultiCore" multi-core optical path system enables the widest range of different measurements without any human intervention. Empyrean Sharp Shadow has the unique ability to measure all types of samples on one instrument, whether they are powders, films, nanomaterials, or solid objects. The field of materials science continues to develop, and the lifespan of high-performance diffraction instruments is much longer than the common lifespan of any research project. Empyrean helps you to cope with everything in the future with your strength.

1. Overview

Empyrean is the only all-in-one platform that ensures excellent data quality for every sample type. It contains the largest set of X-ray diffraction, and a single instrument can be used for scattering and imaging applications. In addition, Empyrean not only meets the current high expectations of scientists and XRD experts, but with the continuous progress of scientific research, Empyrean itself is also not constantly breaking through innovation to ensure meeting future needs.

2. Characteristics

The highest data quality for each sample

The performance of Empyrean Sharp Shadow has been praised by scientists, who have been able to prepare synchrotron beam timing in the best possible way with its help. Empyrean's unparalleled sample stage and optical component library allow for applications in multiple ways: from simply adding some slits and analysis software to standard diffraction geometry, to using specialized optics, light sources, and detectors for optimal performance. It is an ideal choice for multifunctional laboratories: if the demand for a certain application increases, data quality and throughput time can be improved by adding dedicated modules.

Versatile and future oriented

The only constant in life is change. This statement is particularly applicable in the field of research, where analytical requirements often change as research plans shift. New applications can be easily added to the Empyrean Sharp Shadow system and achieve optimal performance. Exciting new applications are constantly being developed on this platform, keeping our customers at the forefront of technology.

Pixel based technology

Marvin Panaco has always been at the forefront of hybrid detector technology. We are the first company to launch silicon strip detectors with 0D and 1D capabilities, and have also expanded the onboard flexibility to 0D-1D-2D-3D. Our hybrid detectors (PIXcel3D and GaliPIX3D) have small pixel sizes, zero background, and high dynamic range, bringing revolutionary changes to XRD applications. No need to maximize intensity or 2D detector size. By using optical options and operating radius, you can optimize the configuration to fully meet your requirements.

MultiCore Optics

The newly developed "MultiCore Optics" multi-core optical path system introduces the "iCore" incident nucleus and "DeCore" detection nucleus, greatly simplifying the use of multifunctional X-ray diffraction systems and achieving unprecedented levels of instrument automation. When switching between different measurements, iCore and dDore will be responsible for the conversion work themselves, without any human intervention.

PreFIX

PreFIX is our proven proprietary concept, representing a pre calibrated, fast switchable X-ray module.

With the PreFIX concept, your diffraction system becomes flexible, fast, and future oriented. With reproducible positioning at the micrometer level, the PreFIX optics and sample stage mounting method allow for reconfiguration of the diffractometer. This allows users to switch between different applications within minutes, making Empyrean a truly versatile diffractometer.

Good laboratory practices

The Empyrean Sharp Shadow is equipped with a calibration free PreFIX module and automated measurement and analysis functions, making it easy for anyone who complies with Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) to operate. In addition, Empyrean's products include comprehensive coverage - from hardware to specialized analysis solutions - with detailed tutorials for novice users, while professionals can also access all the necessary features.

Customized solution for X-ray diffraction

Empyrean is a truly versatile instrument that can support a range of applications. We often encounter scientists and analysts on the market who use our equipment and want to further expand its potential due to their research needs. Marvin Panaco hopes to assist users in material research. We can provide suitable solutions or low-cost production processes for their complex analytical problems.
