Co to jest technologia XRD?

X- ray diffraction (XRD) is an analytical technique that determinates thee krystaline structure of materials by measuring the angles and intensities of X- rays scattered by the sampe. Each krystaline faxe produces a unique diffraction parafine - essentially a fingerprint - that can by matched against reference-destructive, nemains minimal same same identify mineral fazes and quantify their dimentance. The technique is inherenty non- destrutive, nemates minimal le same, and solids, and works oins, poveres, and.

When a monochromatic X- ray beam strikes a clastline sampe, thee X- rays are diffracted by thee regularly spaced atomic planes. Detering to Bragg 's law (nλ = 2d sin θ), constructive interference events only at specific incident angles (θ) corresponding to the interplanar spacing (d).
