Advanced Crystallography

Structural Dynamics is exploring molecular structure in “non-equilibrium states” and “real environment”.

• Photo- or time-resolved crystallography uses the pulsed nature of the synchrotron source, together with its brilliance, to measure diffraction from samples that have been raised to excited states using laser light.
• In-situ structural dynamics experiments use an in-house design Environmental Control Cell (ECC) to study the confirmation of molecular structure changes under the real environmental conditions, such as gas, vacuum, solutions, and humidity.
