Equipment Scheduling
The SMART, APEX, GADDS and SAXS machines may be reserved by School of Chemical Sciences clients by request.
The GADDS (WAXS) and SAXS instruments may be reserved in hourly increments on a 24/7 basis. GADDS and SAXS users must complete a two-hour introductory/safety course and submit a financial responsibility form before using either instrument.
The CCD instruments (APEX and SMART) may be reserved in 8-hour increments on most weekends. CCD (single crystal) users must complete a two-hour introductory/safety course and submit a financial responsibility form before hands-on use. Additionally, CCD users may submit single crystal samples for data collection by MCL staff during the week. A sample analysis form is available online at http://www.scs.uiuc.edu/x-ray/instruments/x-ray_form.pdf. This form must be printed and submitted with your CCD sample.
