facilities, equipments/ instrumentation:

The Expert System Xcalibur E

Year of acquisition:

2010

Average value at the time of acquisition :

200000

Short Description:

The expert diffractometer for the modern chemical crystallography laboratory, the Xcalibur E is the most popular choice of system for single wavelength small molecule crystallography. Most often configured with molybdenum radiation but also available with copper, the Xcalibur E system comprises a 4-circle kappa goniometer mounted with a single wavelength Enhance™ X-ray source and the Eos™ CCD detector. Incorporating the fastest, most sensitive CCD detector available today, the Xcalibur E is the perfect choice of diffractometer for both day to day routine crystal structure determinations and the more challenging high resolution electron density studies. UPGRADEABLE Since the future needs of your research may change, the Xcalibur E has been designed to be upgraded to a dual wavelength system through the addition of either a second Enhance or a high intensity Enhance Ultra™ X-ray source.

Nanotester PMT-3-NI

Year of acquisition:

2009.0000

Average value at the time of acquisition :

30000

Short Description:

The Nanotester PMT-3-NI is a device of high precision that uses the dynamic loading method to obtain the load/indentation depth curve. With this method, the indenter is, in fact, continuously pressed into the material tested with an increasing test load, and then unloaded. The respective indentation depth is meassured during the whole loading/unloading process. The important mechanical characteristic such as nanohardness (HB), microhardness (HB, HV, Hsf), scratch hardness (Hs) , Young modulus (E), the elastic recovery degree, the film/substrate adhesion, etc. can be obtained from the rezulting load/unload cycle. Two electromagnetic heads equipped by the diamond indenters (Berkovich and Vickers pyramids) and spherical one for the load imposition and indentation depth measuring have the following characteristics: - Load Range --- 0.005 – 1000 mN - Load Resolution --- <15 μN - Maximum Depth --- 200-500 μm - Depth Resolution --- 0.04-0.15 nm - Time Resolution ---- 0.005 s - XY Lateral Resolution --- 0.1-0.5 μm - XY Stage --- 10 mm

Solar Cell Tester

Year of acquisition:

2008

Average value at the time of acquisition :

30000

Short Description:

The tester is designed for terrestrial solar cell incoming/outcoming inspection with the purpose of checking and optimizing parameters and preventing manufacture defects of solar modules. Solar cells are not heated in process of inspection due to the use of xenon pulse lamp installed in the tester. The tester is PC controlled and enables to select inspection options ranging from simple check in a particular I-V curve point up to full I-V curve recording and statistical processing of measurement results. The tester can be involved into automatic testing/sorting station.

Ground-based solar radiation monitoring station of the Institute of Applied Physics

Year of acquisition:

2003

Average value at the time of acquisition :

60000

Short Description:

The station is situated at the building roof of the Institute of Applied Physics, Academy of Sciences of Moldova. The station consists of - multifunctional radiometric complex, - sun photometer Cimel 318, - hand-held ozonometer MICROTOPS II Ozonemeter, - automatic weather station (AWS) MiniMet, - data logger CR10x with memory module SM 4M, - PCs for data collection, processing and archiving. The complex consists of stationary and moving platforms equipped with nine broadband sensors for measurements direct, diffuse and total solar radiation within the wavelength region ranged from UV-B to long-wave spectra. The set of sensors consist of: - UV-S-B-C for UV-B (global, diffuse) 280 - 315 nm; - UV-S-A-C for UV-A (global) 315 - 400 nm; - CM-11 for solar radiation (global, diffuse) 280 - 3000 nm; - CH-1 for solar radiation (direct) 280 - 3000 nm; - PAR Lite for Photosynthetically Active Radiation (global) 400 - 700 nm; - SP Lite for solar radiation (global) 400 - 1100 nm; - CG-1 for longwave atmospheric radiation (global) 4 - 42 um. Total solar radiation is measured at the stationary platform. Moving platform 2AP BD performs active sun tracking in automatic mode to measure direct and diffuse solar radiation. Solar and atmospheric radiation is measured in continuous mode. Measurements of atmospheric aerosol optical properties are carried out with sun photometer within the framework of the international AERONET project managed by NASA/GSFC. Kishinev site(#97) is included into the globally distributed AERONET network. This project is in operation since 1999 (http://aeronet.gsfc.nasa.gov/new_web/photo_db/Moldova.html). Total ozone content in a column of atmosphere at the station is regularly measured with ozonometer. Measurements of main surface meteorological elements are carried out in continuous mode at the weather station equipped with sensors of - atmospheric pressure, - mean wind and velocity diection, - relative humidity, - air temperature, - solar radiation (400-1100 nm); - UV-B solar radiation (280-315 nm). In 2003 ground based monitoring station was registered in the Global Atmosphere Watch Station Information System (GAW SIS) as a Regional fixed station in WMO RA VI - Europe. Data on solar radiation and total column ozone are submitted to the - AERONET, NASA/GSFC; - SolRad-Net, NASA/GSFC; - World Ozone and Ultraviolet Radiation Data Centre (WOUDC); - World Radiation Data Centre (WRDC).
