XRD (X-ray diffraction) is a technique for studying the crystalline structure of materials, which can be used on single crystals or polycrystalline sample. Powder XRD (PXRD) is a specific type of XRD used for analyzing powdered or polycrystalline samples, focusing on phase identification and lattice parameters. PXRD is generally faster and simpler, while single crystal XRD provides detailed 3D atomic structures.
XRD is used to determine both qualitative and quantitative aspects of materials. Qualitatively, it identifies phases and crystal structures in a material. Quantitatively, it can determine the amounts of different phases, crystallite sizes, and lattice parameters.
XRD can test a variety of samples, including single crystals, powders, thin films, and polycrystalline materials.
