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 ...

The advanced course covers a wide range of topics including systematic errors, factors affecting intensities of diffraction peaks; data reduction algorithms; phase identification; advanced data mining ...

The technique is typically carried out on a single crystal, but because not all substances easily form good quality crystals, powder X-ray diffraction (PXD) is sometimes used instead. Powder X-ray ...

Over the course of its long history, powder diffraction has provided countless insights into the properties of materials. It will continue to do so in the future, but with an emphasis on elucidating ...

X-ray powder diffraction exploits the interaction between x-rays and matter to study the structural and microstructural properties of materials. X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD) is a powerful technique ...

At PITTCON 2015, Bruker AXS has introduced its D8 ENDEAVOR™ process diffraction solution for the analysis of polycrystalline material by means of X-ray powder diffraction. The new D8 ENDEAVOR is the ...

X-ray diffraction (XRD) is a technique in which the diffraction of X-rays by a sample of interest is analyzed. When used as a basic technique (X-ray powder diffraction), it can determine the ...

Particle size analysis is crucial to quality control and product development in a number of key industries including aerosols, construction, food and beverage, paint and coatings, and pharmaceuticals.

With the development of different techniques for the synthesis of nanomaterials, researchers are constantly looking for a more precise instrument for their nanoscale characterization. X-ray ...
