Speaker
Dr. Michael Koehler
Lab Manager
JIAM Diffraction Facility
Abstract
X-ray diffraction (XRD) is a powerful technique used to study a wide variety of materials. Research into poly- and single-crystal materials, polymers, biological materials, thin films, ion-irradiated materials, and others can greatly benefit from XRD. This seminar will briefly introduce how the atomic structure of a material determines the X-ray diffraction pattern, cover many of the capabilities (e.g. grazing incidence, texture, non-ambient in-situ, phase quantification, etc.) found in the JIAM Diffraction Facility, show examples of the data that can be obtained, and illustrate what can be learned from these data utilizing the HighScore Plus software and PDF-4+ database available in the JIAM Diffraction Facility.
Information
All students and faculty are invited to attend. UTNE Graduate Students who hold Assistantships or Fellowships are required to attend in person.
Refreshments will be provided in 200 ESA immediately following the colloquium.
