A. Darovsky et P. Coppens, A DEVICE FOR LOW-TEMPERATURE CRYSTAL REORIENTATION IN DATA-COLLECTIONWITH THE OSCILLATION METHOD, Journal of applied crystallography, 31, 1998, pp. 296-298
A cold finger attached to the second refrigeration stage of a DE-201 D
isplex closed-cycle helium refrigerator has been equipped with a minia
ture DC motor. The device allows reorientation of the crystal at low t
emperature, without remounting or warming to ambient temperature. The
axis around which the crystal is rotated is inclined by 45 degrees to
the cryostat axis, which gives a 90 degrees change in orientation of t
he crystal upon 180 degrees rotation.
