ELDICO Scientific AG (The Electron Diffraction Company) is a Swiss technology and service company that was founded in 2019. ELDICO develops, manufactures and commercializes solutions based on the electron diffractometer. ELDICO’s clients are industrial and academic researchers in large and fast-growing areas such as the health care, energy storage and advanced materials applications.

ELDICO’s headquarters is based in Villigen, Switzerland, at the Park Innovaare next to Paul Scherrer Institute. At ELDICO’s experience centre and application lab in Basel, we offer product demonstrations, customer training and routine analysis on commercial samples.

ELDICO’s Electron Diffractometer, the ELDICO ED-1, is a novel analytical instrument for electron crystallography, enabling researcher to investigate nano-crystalline samples with particle size below 1000 nm.

The ELDICO ED-1 is an Electron Diffractometer developed by scientist for scientists and is therefore intuitive to operate. The unique patented goniometer enables researchers to get molecular structure information on their nanoparticles in less than a minute also under cryogenic conditions. 

ELDICO offers the following analyses on your nanosized materials: Crystal structure determination,  Absolute configuration confirmation, Crystal mapping of phase mixtures, Identification of crystalline impurities, Polymorphism characterisation, Detection of micro-crystallinity in amorphous materials.

Customer-specific needs can also be discussed and tailored to provide solutions together with our experts.
