Analyzing thin films in semiconductors, solar panels, and lithium-ion batteries to optimize performance. Identifying minerals in soil and rock samples for
Identifying minerals in soil and rock samples for resource exploration and mapping.
When a monochromatic X-ray beam hits a crystalline sample, the rays are scattered by the electrons around the atoms.
This constructive interference only occurs when the geometry of the beam satisfies Bragg’s Law (
