Sampling is one of the most important aspects of particle size analysis. If a biased sample is analyzed, a biased particle size distribution will be recorded. The requirement for good sampling not ...

One key method for structural analyses are diffraction methods. Therefore, X-rays are the probe used in-house as well as complemented by neutrons and more brilliant synchrotron X-ray beams as probes ...

Dr. Thomas Hartmann and Dr. Sascha Correll, of STOE, are experts in the field of x-ray crystallography. AZoNano spoke to both of them about STOE's new piece of equipment; the INSITU HT2, how it can be ...

“The powder method has gained a new importance in neutron diffraction owing to the general lack of large specimens for single-crystal methods”. With this brief opening sentence of his landmark paper ...

When a laser beam is incident on many small objects such as lycopodium powder, the resulting diffraction pattern is similar to the diffraction pattern of a small circular aperture (Airy's disk pattern ...

X-ray Powder Diffractometers are versatile instruments that often come with a variety of optics and accessories that can be exchanged to optimize measurements. While these options provide flexibility, ...

This video shows how the X-ray powder diffraction sample preparation, measurement and analysis is now easy with Bruker’s D2 PHASER instrument. The D2 PHASER desktop X-ray diffraction tool enables ...

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 ...
