IN usual experiments with diffraction of X-rays by crystals, an effect of space-lattice is always observed owing to the penetration of the rays into the depth of the crystal. The thin layers, however, ...

In 1912, scientists invented X-ray crystallography and revealed a crystal’s atomic structure for the first time Tess Joosse Humans have marveled at crystals for millennia. Viridescent emerald, rich ...

X-ray crystallography is a powerful non-destructive technique for determining the molecular structure of a crystal. X-ray crystallography uses the principles of X-ray diffraction to analyze the sample ...

What is X-Ray Crystallography? X-ray crystallography is a powerful analytical technique used to determine the atomic and molecular structure of crystalline materials. It involves directing a beam of X ...

The new method can determine crystal structures underlying experimental data thus far difficult to analyze. A joint research team led by Yuuki Kubo and Shiji Tsuneyuki of the University of Tokyo has ...

X-rays, a type of electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths from 0.01 to 10 nanometers, pack enough energy to pierce materials and interact with inner-shell electrons. 1 When they hit a sample, ...

What is X-Ray Scattering? X-ray scattering is a powerful analytical technique used to probe the structure and properties of materials at the nanoscale. It involves directing a beam of X-rays at a ...

Developing an effective and robust system for deepening our understanding of the characteristics of the tissue, structure, mechanical properties and organization of bone at the level of the nanoscale, ...

UNDER this title, W. Linnik, of the Leningrad Optical Institute, described in a recent issue of NATURE (April 20) an effect obtained with copper K radiation and a mica crystal. A narrow beam of X-rays ...
