This paper considers the question of recovering the phase of an object from intensity-only measurements, a problem which naturally appears in X-ray crystallography and related disciplines. We study a physically realistic setup where one can modulate the signal of interest and then collect the intensity of its diffraction pattern, each modulation thereby producing a sort of coded diffraction pat...

Short and intense x-ray pulses may be used for atomic-resolution diffraction imaging of single biological molecules. Radiation damage and a low signal-to-noise ratio impose stringent pulse requirements. In this Letter, we describe methods for decreasing the damage and improving the signal by encapsulating the molecule in a sacrificial layer (tamper) that reduces atomic motion and by postprocess...

In this scientific research ZnS nanoparticle was synthesized via precipitation method. Two samples were synthesized by this method. The nanoparticle was characterized by XRD techniques, and the size and kind of crystallinity were identified by X-ray diffraction pattern as well. The size measurement has been done by using scherrer's equation. The average sizes of nanoparticles in two sa...

nanocrystalline zno particles were prepared by a novel sonochemical route from zinc acetate and sodium hydroxide without any requirement of calcination steps at high temperature and without surfactants. variations in several parameters and their effects on the structural (crystal size and morphology) properties of nanoparticles were investigated. characterizations were carried out by x-ray diff...

objective(s): hardystonite (ht) has been successfully prepared by a modified sol-gel method. we hypothesized thatnano-sized (ht) would mimic more efficiently the nanocrystal structure and function of natural bone apatite, owing to the higher surface area, compare to conventional micron-size (ht).materials and methods: the hardystonite nanopowder was prepared via a modified sol-gel method.optimi...

znfe2o4 mixed spinel ferrite nanoparticles obtained through a citrate-nitrate combustion method. ignited products calcined at different temperatures in 600-900ºc range and effect of calcination treatment temperature investigated. final products characterized by x-ray diffraction (xrd), fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (ftir), and field emission scanning electron microscopy (fesem). the a...

The RNA.DNA hybrid poly(rA).poly(dT) can adopt two conformations, depending upon its degree of hydration. Fibers yield a conventional A' RNA-like pattern at 79% relative humidity. In contrast, under highly solvated conditions this material yields an x-ray diffraction pattern with striking similarities to that of B DNA and clearly different from the RNA-like diffraction patterns previously obtai...

In the present paper are described experiments with synthetic polysaccharides prepared with muscle, heart, and liver phosphorylase. As judged by solubility properties and iodine colorations, the muscle enzyme synthesizes a polysaccharide in vitro which resembles plant starches, while the heart and liver enzymes synthesize a polysaccharide which resembles glycogen (1). It will be shown below tha...
