When a laser beam is incident on many small objects such as lycopodium powder, the resulting diffraction pattern is similar to the diffraction pattern of a small circular aperture (Airy's disk pattern ...

The most common application of XRD, Phase Analysis seeks to answer the fundamental question we can ask of a material: 'what is it?' We compare diffraction patterns against the 2014 edition of the ICDD ...

Then, they began testing the model on diffraction patterns that hadn’t been solved before. This data came from the Powder Diffraction File, which contains diffraction data for more than 400,000 ...

To make inorganic materials such as catalysts, industry mixes precursor powders and fires them in an oven. This often ...

Thanks to a new partnership with Solid4m Inc., Proto is excited to create high-throughput powder diffraction solutions that offer even faster results for material discovery. Launched in March of ...
