XRD-X-Ray Diffractometer is part of the Characterization Laboratory infrastructure at ITU Surface Lab. This page summarizes where the device sits in the laboratory workflow, what kind of measurements or process steps it supports, and why it matters in applied surface engineering studies.
In practice, the device is used to compare coating behavior, process stability, microstructural response, or surface-related performance outputs under controlled research conditions. The goal is not only to list the equipment, but to clarify the role it plays in experiment design and interpretation.
The summary, metadata cards, and detailed content below connect the device to real laboratory questions such as deposition strategy, corrosion response, tribological performance, characterization depth, or data reliability across projects and publications.
