How XRD Systems Work?
An XRD (X-Ray Diffraction) system works by directing a focused X-ray beam onto a crystalline sample. When the X-rays interact with the regularly arranged atomic planes in the material, they are diffracted at specific angles according to Bragg’s Law. A detector measures the intensity of these diffracted X-rays as the sample and detector rotate. The resulting diffraction pattern acts as a fingerprint of the material’s crystal structure, allowing the software to identify phases, determine lattice parameters, crystallite size, and other structural properties.

FAQs
An XRD system is used to identify crystalline phases, determine crystal structure, measure lattice parameters, and analyze material properties in research, quality control, and industrial applications.
XRD can analyze a wide range of crystalline materials including powders, metals, ceramics, minerals, cement, pharmaceuticals, thin films, and nanomaterials.
Sample preparation is usually simple and depends on the sample type. Powders are typically ground and mounted, while bulk or thin-film samples may require minimal preparation.
XRD is considered a non-destructive technique, as the sample remains chemically unchanged after analysis.
XRD provides phase identification, crystal structure details, crystallite size, strain, lattice parameters, and quantitative phase analysis.
XRD systems are widely used in materials science, metallurgy, mining, cement, ceramics, pharmaceuticals, semiconductors, polymers, and academic research laboratories.
