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 recent communication in Nature 1 by J. Gibson directing attention to new extra lines in the X-ray powder diffraction pattern of graphite led us to re-examine a number of photographs of purified ...

The CSD-Materials suite now includes a CSD Python API feature based on the FIDEL method, known as AutoFIDEL, which allows for matching and optimizing crystal structures against experimental powder ...

Specimen mounting in x-ray powder diffraction affects peak positions and intensities. The specimen-mount procedure is one of the many actions an investigator employs that could dramatically affect ...

Description: Electron diffraction patterns for single crystal and polycrystalline materials are displayed on a CRT screen. A Welch model 2639 'Electron Diffraction tube' is used in an experiment in ...

A new technique uses a pulsing laser to create synthetic nanodiamond films and patterns from graphite, with potential applications from biosensors to computer chips. “The biggest advantage is that you ...

The Scintag XDS2000 powder diffractometer is configured with a graphite monochromater and IBM compatible workstation running Scintag DMSNT software in Windows NT environment. New cameras installed in ...

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 ...

IN an earlier article in Nature 1 I reported some results of a study of the high-temperature transformation of diamond to graphite. In this work diamond powder of 0–1μ particle size was used. Samples ...
