The use of computational methods for the powder X-ray diffraction data analysis is now generalized. It typically compares the experimental data to the simulated diffractogram of a model structure, taking into account the instrumental parameters, and refines the structural or microstructural parameters of the model using least squares based ...
Free-electron lasers have been developed for use in X-ray diffraction and crystallography. [27] These are the brightest X-ray sources currently available; with the X-rays coming in femtosecond bursts. The intensity of the source is such that atomic resolution diffraction patterns can be resolved for crystals otherwise too small for collection.
RHEED is used to interrogate surface structure. [1] [2] Surface X-ray diffraction (SXRD), which is similar to RHEED but uses X-rays, and is also used to interrogate surface structure. [3] X-ray standing waves, another X-ray variant where the intensity decay into a sample from diffraction is used to analyze chemistry. [4]
X-ray diffraction computed tomography is an experimental technique that combines X-ray diffraction with the computed tomography data acquisition approach. X-ray diffraction (XRD) computed tomography (CT) was first introduced in 1987 by Harding et al. [ 1 ] using a laboratory diffractometer and a monochromatic X-ray pencil beam .
The Lab was working on the instrument package for the Surveyor spaceship. The composition of the Moon’s surface was of major interest and the use of an X-ray detection instrument was viewed as a possible solution. Working with a power limit of 30 watts was very challenging, and a device was delivered but it wasn’t used.
In physics, the phase problem is the problem of loss of information concerning the phase that can occur when making a physical measurement. The name comes from the field of X-ray crystallography , where the phase problem has to be solved for the determination of a structure from diffraction data. [ 1 ]
Three-dimensional X-ray diffraction (3DXRD) is a microscopy technique using hard X-rays (with energy in the 30-100 keV range) to investigate the internal structure of polycrystalline materials in three dimensions.
