For more than a century, scientists have relied on crystallography—analyzing X-ray diffraction patterns—to uncover ...

One longstanding problem has sidelined life-saving drugs, stalled next-generation batteries, and kept archaeologists from identifying the origins of ...

Data reduction schemes include unit cell determination, pattern indexing, precision lattice parameter determination, and Reitveld analysis. Crystalline compounds can be identified through indexing ...

He reported that he did not know of any X-ray evidence to this effect. Mr. Fraser Oliver undertook to test this theory by taking X-ray photographs of the ice formed by condensation of water vapour ...

Using X-ray pulses to illuminate nanoparticles, researchers decode diffraction patterns to construct detailed three-dimensional images. (Illustration: ETH Zürich / Daniela Rupp) In a 2D-XRD experiment ...

Data reduction schemes include unit cell determination, pattern indexing, precision lattice parameter determination. Crystalline compounds can be identified through indexing with the built-in JCPDS ...

All of the single crystal diffractometers are equipped with modern kappa-geometry goniometers. Two of these have conventional fixed Mo-anode X-ray tubes and are used for routine samples. The third is ...

Our suite of ten X-ray diffractometers allows the collection ... what is it?' We compare diffraction patterns against the 2014 edition of the ICDD's Powder Diffraction File, a reference database of ...

Definition: X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) is a powerful analytical technique used to characterize the atomic and molecular structure of a crystal. By measuring the angles and intensities of diffracted beams ...

X-ray crystallography is a technique that uses X-ray diffraction patterns to determine high-resolution, three-dimensional structures of molecules such as proteins, small organic molecules ...

A principal use of the method is the detection and investigation of compounds according to their x-ray diffraction pattern. X-ray diffractometers are capable of non-destructively evaluating matter in ...

The method predicts structures directly from powder X-ray diffraction patterns, which are created when X-rays pass through ...
