HexaCell - Reflection

A light, easy-to-fill, and reliable cell for operando electrochemical measurements in reflection geometry

The HexaCell Reflection is our flagship operando cell, designed for X-ray diffraction measurements in reflection geometry. Its lightweight, hexagonal design makes it fast and straightforward to fill and assemble, without compromising on sealing reliability or measurement quality during electrochemical cycling.

Built for real-time monitoring of structural changes in battery materials, the HexaCell Reflection lets researchers and engineers capture reliable, reproducible operando data — whether at the laboratory or on a synchrotron beamline in reflection geometry.

Windows

The HexaCell Reflection accepts three window materials, so you can match the cell to your specific beam energy and sample requirements:

  • Beryllium – excellent X-ray transmission, ideal for most operando diffraction setups
  • Aluminum – a cost-effective, robust alternative
  • Glassy Carbon – well suited for measurements requiring low background scattering
  • Light and easy to fill: streamlined assembly designed to save you time in the lab
  • Reliable sealing: consistent, leak-tight performance across long electrochemical cycling experiments
  • Proven reflection geometry: optimized for θ-θ diffractometer setups, at the lab or at the synchrotron
  • Flexible windows: choose Beryllium, Aluminum, or Glassy Carbon depending on your experiment
