X-ray Generator Fits In the Palm of Your Hand

With instruments like this, it will make the task of X-ray crystallography determination of protein structures much easier.

No, it won't. Two reasons:

1) You need "hard" X-rays for crystallography - with a wavelength similar to the chemical bond length. The maximum resolution you can achieve is equivalent to half the wavelength, and even that requires a complicated detector setup, so in practice you want a wavelength around 1 ? for crystallography. The wavelength of this device is 8?, which is fi
