The optic has quite a symmetrical design and consists of a two crystal monochromator with sagittal focusing (mainly Si(111) but Si(311) is available) located between two cylindrically bent mirrors in a compact arrangement, with double focusing (3:1).

The KAPPA diffractometer for Materials Science is driven with the spec-kappa geometry. It leaves a large free space to adapt sample environment. For the detection, vertical rotation axis NU and horizontal axis DELTA (-5°, + 130°) can carry an optional vertical analyser. All the angular motions have a resolution lower than 0.001°, the confusion sphere being smaller than 0.05 mm. Using a Si (311) analyser, FWHM less than 0.02° (2THETA) should be reached with powder samples. An optional goniometer-head (two translation on top of two cradles) is available on top of the kappa head for surfaces applications.
Various sample environments are available.
