The Use of Hard Synchrotron Radiation for Diffraction Studies of Composite and Functional Materials

详细

Potential use of hard synchrotron radiation (SR) with the quantum energy above 25 keV is discussed aiming to solve a number of research tasks on investigation of structural changes taking place in materials. The advantages and limitations of the use of hard SR for diffraction studies are evaluated. A review of the principal techniques is made wherein application of hard SR both promotes certain experimental investigations and frequently allows obtaining new structural data unavailable with X-ray tubes.
