Its uniform structure allowed precise diffraction patterns to emerge, reinforcing the idea that even the thinnest barriers ...

Quasicrystals are intriguing materials with long-range atomic order that lack periodicity. It has been a longstanding question whether antiferromagnetism, while commonly found in regular crystals, is ...

Figure 1: a) Stationary diffraction pattern of cBN powder, integrated over the Debye-Scherrer rings, measured with femtosecond x-ray pulses as a function of the diffraction angle 2θ. b ...

A theoretical astrophysicist from the University of Kansas may have solved a nearly two-decade-old mystery over the origins of an unusual "zebra" pattern seen in high-frequency radio pulses from the ...

It involves the interaction of a beam of electrons with a crystalline sample, resulting in a diffraction pattern that provides information about the arrangement of atoms within the material. This ...

Description: Electron diffraction patterns for single crystal and polycrystalline materials are displayed on a CRT screen. A Welch model 2639 'Electron Diffraction tube' is used in an experiment in ...

When a laser beam is incident on many small objects such as lycopodium powder, the resulting diffraction pattern is similar to the diffraction pattern of a small circular aperture (Airy's disk pattern ...

A pattern of distorted lines is visible as a reflection in this close-up view of a human eye. By observing the deformation of illumination patterns reflected off the eye's surface, researchers in ...

Captured here is a laser diffraction pattern, visible as a series of concentric circles with a bright central area. This pattern is a result of light waves spreading out and overlapping after passing ...

Researchers discover brand new one-dimensional diffraction patterns in two-dimensional nanomaterials, with exciting implications. Credit: Institute of Industrial Science, The University of Tokyo ...
