Using ultrahigh-intensity x-ray beams can cause the intensity of diffraction patterns from samples to drop Figure 1: An x-ray diffraction pattern obtained from a sample of Martian soil. X-ray ...

Specimen mounting in x-ray powder diffraction affects peak positions and intensities. The specimen-mount procedure is one of the many actions an investigator employs that could dramatically affect ...

XRD works by directing X-rays onto a crystalline material and analyzing the angles and intensities of the diffracted beams. The atomic planes within the crystal act as a three-dimensional grating, ...

X-ray diffraction (XRD) is a powerful non-destructive analytical technique used to evaluate crystalline materials and determine their structural properties. As one of the most widely used ...

The authors discuss the valuable information that can be obtained from indexing and its applications in routine screening and analysis of solid forms. Crystal-structure determination using X-ray ...

Rigaku Americas Corporation has announced the introduction of a new, compact, fully integrated high-resolution X-ray diffraction system, the Rigaku RAPID II. According to Rigaku, the latest member of ...

The X-ray crystallography laboratory in the School of Mathematical and Physical Sciences is both a user and service facility. We are equipped with three single crystal and two powder diffractometers.

Diagram of an X-ray Reflectometry (XRR) setup: This schematic shows the arrangement of the X-ray tube, Gӧbel mirror, sample holder, and detector. The X-rays are emitted from the tube, shaped by slits ...

The X-ray diffraction (XRD) facility comprises several state-of-the-art instruments used for phase identification, quantification and crystal structure analysis. Our laboratory specialises in the ...

(Nanowerk News) Turning up the intensity of x-ray beams used to probe the atomic structures of materials can actually reduce the intensity of x-rays scattered from the material, a RIKEN-led team has ...
