(Nanowerk News) Turning up the intensity of x-ray beams used to probe the atomic structures of materials can actually reduce the intensity of x-rays scattered from the material, a RIKEN-led team has ...

Scientists at the Paul Scherrer Institute PSI have refined an X-ray diffraction technique for detecting biological structures ...

Inside the Findings That Shaped Materials Science takes a closer look at some of those turning points - the ideas, lab ...

Coherent X-ray Diffraction Imaging (CXDI) is a transformative, non-destructive technique that leverages the interference patterns produced by coherent X-ray beams to reconstruct high-resolution, ...

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 ...

Scientists at PSI refined an X-ray diffraction technique that maps bone structure from nanometres to millimetres in about an ...

For more than 100 years, scientists have been using X-ray crystallography to determine the structure of crystalline materials such as metals, rocks, and ceramics. This technique works best when the ...

What is Bragg Coherent Diffraction Imaging? Bragg coherent diffraction imaging (BCDI) is a powerful X-ray imaging technique that allows researchers to visualize the internal structure and strain ...

Metal alkynyl complexes encompass a diverse class of organometallic compounds in which alkynyl ligands, characterised by their carbon–carbon triple bonds, coordinate to metal centres. These complexes ...

XRD works by directing X-rays onto a crystalline material and analyzing the angles and intensities of the diffracted beams. The atomic planes within the crystal act as a three-dimensional grating, ...

Physiochemical properties such as solubility and dissolution rate play a crucial role when it comes to the therapeutic efficacy of oral drug formulations. According to the Biopharmaceutical ...

Dr. Akhilesh Tripathi has spent over two decades teaching X-ray diffraction (XRD) and training users of Rigaku's MiniFlex benchtop XRD system. In this conversation, he shares how benchtop XRD ...
