Electron diffraction is a powerful analytical technique used to study the atomic structure of materials. It involves the interaction of a beam of electrons with a crystalline sample, resulting in a ...

Graphite is an incredibly important, versatile mineral, with uses spanning industries. Graphite is an essential component of many batteries, including lithium-ion batteries, and demand is only ...

RECENTLY we have obtained transmission patterns from graphite powders in which prominent extra rings appear ; owing to insufficient resolution these have hitherto escaped notice. Two of these rings ...

IN the electron diffraction patterns formed by single crystals of graphite (transmission) we have discovered new spots which would be indexed (½00) or (½½0) (and their symmetrical associates) in the ...

What is Electron Backscatter Diffraction (EBSD)? Electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD), also known as backscatter Kikuchi diffraction (BKD), is a powerful characterization technique used to analyze ...

The high sensitivity of the reflection electron microscopy (REM) technique to small changes in the crystal structure and composition of the top surface layers of various crystalline materials makes it ...

The UK’s first dedicated electron diffraction center is due to open in the Summer of 2023. The new facility will help UK nanoscientists to characterize the "tiniest of crystals", according to Derek ...
