The Department of Chemistry of the University Basel offers a crystallographic service to all the research group of the university and to external users as well. With our recent acquisition of a metaljet X-ray source we have one of the most powerful lab diffractometers in the world. Training for interested PhD students and postdocs can also be provided with the aim to let them become independent in the use of the instrument and in the data processing.

We ask external groups or interested parties to contact us directly via email.
