Single crystal Aluminum of (001) orientation were shock peened using laser beam of 12 micron diameter and observed with X-ray micro-diffraction techniques based on a synchrotron light source. The X-ray micro-diffraction affords micron level resolution as compared with conventional X-ray diffraction which has only mm level resolution. The asymmetric and broadened diffraction profiles registered ...

Single crystal aluminum and copper of (001) and (110) orientation were shock peened using laser beam of 12 micron diameter and observed with X-ray micro-diffraction techniques based on a synchrotron light source. The X-ray micro-diffraction affords micron level resolution as compared with conventional X-ray diffraction which has only mm level resolution. The asymmetric and broadened diffraction...

In this work, the influence of micro- and macro-deformation profiles in GaN nanowires (NWs) on the angular intensity distribution of X-ray diffraction are studied theoretically. The calculations are performed by using kinematical theory of X-ray diffraction and assuming the deformation decays exponentially from the NW/substrate interface. Theoretical modeling of X-ray scattering from NWs with d...

Nanocrystals of Titanium dioxide were prepared via sol-gel and solvothermal method. They were characterized by X-ray diffraction and Scanning Electron Microscopy studies. The anatase and rutile phase reflections of the Titanium dioxide nanocrystals were identified by X-ray diffraction data. The micro strain value of the nanocrystals were analysed by W-H plot method. Very small value of micro st...

the ultra-nanocrystalline diamond (uncd) was synthesized by the detonation of a high explosive mixture in water confinement. the presence of a diamond phase was revealed by x-ray diffraction (xrd) and transmission electron microscopy (tem). x-ray line broadening (xrlb) was used to evaluate the peak profiles of diamond nanoparticles and their corresponding average crystallite sizes. the micro st...
