It relies on analyzing how X-rays diffract as they pass through a sample, enabling a detailed evaluation of its structure. XRD can determine fundamental crystal parameters such as lattice constants, lattice geometry, phase identification of unknown materials, crystal size, single-crystal orientation, internal stress, strain, lattice defects, and more.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Its broad usefulness stems from the simplicity of the underlying physics. The diffraction pattern\u2014specifically the angles of maximum intensity, the intensity at each angle, and the width of each peak\u2014captures a wealth of structural information. Another advantage is that XRD requires no vacuum environment, which reduces equipment cost and gives it an edge over electron-based techniques. The method is non-contact, non-destructive, and requires minimal sample preparation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>February 16 X-ray diffraction, or XRD, is a long-standing and highly versatile technique for studying crystalline materials.
