COMBINATIONAL METHOD FOR MICROGRAM-SCALE PRODUCTION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF CRYSTALLINE AND AMORPHOUS LIBRARIES OF MATERIALS

摘要

The invention relates to a method for wet chemical production of a plurality of libraries of materials consisting of solids, whereby the solids are separated from reaction mixtures in microreaction chambers on a base plate serving at the same time as substrate for the library. Depending on the material chosen for the substrate of the library, solids can be subsequently investigated in a non-destructive manner, e.g. by means of reflecting or penetrating microarea x-ray scattering. Preferably, the reactor consists of a cylindrical pressurized container made of steel having a silicon monocrystal plate as library. A steel plate with tetrafluoroethylene coating is pressed on said Si-monocrystal plate by means of screws, the holes of which form the reaction chambers.
