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 ...

The adrenaline rush accompanying the thrill of a scientific discovery was palpable in the summer of 1913 in the laboratory of William Henry Bragg in Leeds, UK. “It was a glorious time, when we worked ...

The authors discuss the valuable information that can be obtained from indexing and its applications in routine screening and analysis of solid forms. Crystal-structure determination using X-ray ...

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 ...
