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

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 joint research team led by Yuuki Kubo and Shiji Tsuneyuki of the University of Tokyo has developed a new computational ...

A MONOCHROMATIC beam of cathode rays was directed against a cleavage face of calcite at a grazing incidence, and the diffraction pattern was obtained on the photographic plate placed behind the ...

Our suite of ten X-ray diffractometers allows the collection of XRD data from 80K ... Phase Analysis seeks to answer the fundamental question we can ask of a material: 'what is it?' We compare ...

and surface X-ray diffraction (SXRD): it is the first book on such quantitative structure analysis in over 30 years. It provides a detailed description of the theory, including cutting-edge ...
