High-Energy X-ray Diffraction

High-Energy X-ray Diffraction is a technique used to study the structure of materials at an atomic level. It involves firing high-energy X-rays at a sample, which causes the X-rays to scatter. By analyzing the angles and intensities of the scattered X-rays, researchers can determine the arrangement of atoms in the material. This method provides valuable insights into the properties of various substances, including metals, crystals, and biological materials, helping in fields like materials science, chemistry, and biology to understand how the structure affects a material's behavior and characteristics.
