X-rays scale atomic peaks
Monday, 21 January, 2002
The University of Queensland's Centre for Microscopy and Microanalysis and the Brisbane Surface Analysis Facility have joined forces to create and manage a $530,000 X-ray Diffraction Facility for the use of university and external researchers.
X-ray diffraction is a technique for studying at the molecular level the properties of materials such as nanocomposites, and the surface properties of materials.
The facility features two instruments. One is intended for high-throughput measurements of powdered samples, while the other is highly flexible for more sophisticated applications such as surface reflectometry.
