European Powder Diffraction Epdic 8

Volume is indexed by Thomson Reuters CPCI-S (WoS). X-ray powder diffraction is a long-established and invaluable technique which is widely applied to the characterization of crystalline materials. The method has traditionally been used for phase identification, quantitative analysis and for the determination of structural imperfections. In recent years however, its use has been extended into exciting new areas such as the extraction of three-dimensional microstructural properties.

X-ray powder diffraction is a long-established and invaluable technique which is widely applied to the characterization of crystalline materials. The method has traditionally been used for phase identification, quantitative analysis and for the determination of structural imperfections. In recent years however, its use has been extended into exciting new areas such as the extraction of three-dimensional microstructural properties. This book contains 88 papers which deal with new findings, and insights into the subject. The contents are discussed under the headings of METHOD DEVELOPMENT: Determination of Crystal Structure and Lattice Constants, Qualitative and Quantitative Phase Analysis, Analysis of Microstructure and Macrostress, Texture and Coarse Grains; INSTRUMENTAL DEVELOPMENT AND MEASUREMENT TECHNIQUES; NEUTRON POWDER DIFFRACTION; MATERIALS: Thin Layers, Polymers and Amorphous Materials, Metals and Alloys, Minerals and Inorganics, Organic Materials. Altogether, this timely collection of papers provides an essential outline of the newest developments in the field of Powder Diffraction.

This is a two-volume set containing the proceedings of the May 2000 conference on European powder diffraction, a non-destructive technique widely applied for the characterization of crystalline materials. Part 1 (54 contributions) covers method development (deconvolution and pattern decomposition, determination of crystal structure and lattice constants, qualitative and quantitative phase analysis, analysis of microstructure and macrostress, and texture and coarse grains); instrumental development and measurement techniques; and synchrotron power, neutron powder, and in-situ (time-resolved) powder diffraction diffraction. Part 2 (80 contributions) addresses the results of applications of various methods to specific classes of materials. such as thin layers, polymers and amorphous materials, metals and alloys, minerals and inorganics, and organic materials.

Volume is indexed by Thomson Reuters CPCI-S (WoS). The proceedings of the 6th European Conference on Powder iffraction cover 191 papers in the areas of X-ray and neutron diffraction (36 papers). Chapters on Method Development, Development of Instruments and Techniques, Software, Synchrotron and Neutron Diffraction offer new ideas on subjects as Microstructure of Materials, Determination of Crystallographic Structure, Quantitative Phase Analysis, and Texture & Coarse Grains. Developments in analysis using the X-ray lens –a bundle of glass capillaries- and single or double X-ray mirrors continue.

The power of powder diffraction - the diffraction analysis of polycrystalline specimens - is shown again convincingly in these Proceedings of the Second European Powder Diffraction Conference EPDIC 2.

This comprehensive publication presents most recent results, and covers practically all aspects of powder diffraction. Part 1 contains contributions dealing with powder diffraction methods, and the larger second part comprises contributions which deal with the application of powder-diffraction methods to specific problems in the physics and chemistry of solids. 1.
