In condensed matter physics and crystallography, the static structure factor (or structure factor for short) is a mathematical description of how a material scatters incident radiation. The structure factor is a critical tool in the interpretation of scattering patterns ( interference patterns ) obtained in X-ray , electron and neutron ...
As mentioned earlier, surfaces are one of the cases in electron diffraction where scattering is kinematical. As such, many surface structures have been solved for by both X-ray and electron diffraction direct methods, including many of the silicon, magnesium oxide, germanium, copper, and strontium titanate surfaces.

The structure factor is a complex number containing information relating to both the amplitude and phase of a wave. In order to obtain an interpretable electron density map , both amplitude and phase must be known (an electron density map allows a crystallographer to build a starting model of the molecule).
After crystallographic image processing, [21] structure factor phase angles are far more reliable than structure factor amplitudes. Further discernment of candidate structures is then mainly based on structure factor phase angles and, to a lesser extent, structure factor amplitudes (so-called 'structure factor fingerprinting'). [22] [23]
Static structure factor of the hard-spheres liquid in Percus–Yevick approximation at three different packing ratios. For hard spheres, the potential u(r) is either zero or infinite, and therefore the Boltzmann factor / is either one or zero, regardless of temperature T. Therefore structure of a hard-spheres fluid is temperature independent.
The crystallographic point group or crystal class is the mathematical group comprising the symmetry operations that leave at least one point unmoved and that leave the appearance of the crystal structure unchanged. These symmetry operations include Reflection, which reflects the structure across a reflection plane

One can determine () indirectly (via its relation with the structure factor ()) using neutron scattering or x-ray scattering data. The technique can be used at very short length scales (down to the atomic level [ 10 ] ) but involves significant space and time averaging (over the sample size and the acquisition time, respectively).
