APXPS

Used for studying the chemical and physical processes involved in the interactions between a solid surface and its environment, to better understand corrosion processes, surface catalysis, etc.
Facility
Offered at beam lines
MAX IV Laboratory
SPECIES, HIPPIE

ARPES

Used for studying the electronic structure of surfaces and materials and to map the dispersion of electronic bands near the Fermi level.

Facility
Offered at beam lines
MAX IV Laboratory
HIPPIE, Bloch

BioSAXS

Small Angle X-ray Scattering used for obtaining information on the shape and size and of biological macromolecules in solution, for example the molecular weight of a protein complex.

Facility
Offered at beam lines
MAX IV Laboratory
CoSAXS

Fragment Screening

A powerful technique frequently used within drug discovery to screen fragment libraries for specific binding to a biological target, such as probing the functional sites of target proteins or to find starting points for development of novel pharmaceutical substances.

Facility
Offered at beam lines
MAX IV Laboratory
BioMAX

MX

Used for determining the atomic, three-dimensional structures of large biological molecules and understand the structure-function relationship.

Facility
Offered at beam lines
MAX IV Laboratory
MicroMAX, BioMAX

PEEM

A non-destructive technique used for constructing three-dimensional images from two-dimensional projections. It can let you characterize internal structures of porous materials or determine deviations inside components.

Facility
Offered at beam lines
MAX IV Laboratory
MAXPEEM

SAXS

Suitable for investigate the structure of partially ordered materials and systems that may be complex or difficult to crystallise. X-rays allow experiments at a wider range of length scales and at faster measurement times than possible with lab-based instruments.
