James C. Fettinger, Ph.D.
Department of Chemistry
(530) 754-7822
The X-Ray Crystallographic Facility, located in the Department of
Chemistry, provides crystal structure determinations for researchers.
Single crystals from all branches of chemistry are studied. The
facility is equipped with two X-ray diffractometers, a Bruker
SMART1000 and a Siemens P4 equipped with a rotating Cu anode
source and possesses a stereo-microscope. Access to a Bruker
ApexII diffractometer is also available. All instruments possess
variable low temperature systems. Consultation and collaboration
on a variety of single crystal related projects can be arranged.
