The X-ray Center as a central facility of the TU Wien for material characterization by means of X-ray diffraction methods was established in mid-2010. The laboratory rooms could be realized in the new chemical building "Lehargasse" at Getreidemarkt, which was renewed within the infrastructure project TU Univercity 2015. For this purpose, the instruments which were already available at the institutes of the TU Wien were bundled.
