Discuss the importance and key role of Bragg’s law in X-raydiffraction experiments.
Describe the developments in experimental approaches, advancesin instrumentation and techniques in X-ray diffraction experimentsfrom the era of von
Laue to the present day.
The relative intensity of Bragg reflections in X-ray powderdiffraction experiments is affected by several factors. Discussthese factors and how these issues arise with an explanation of howthey are corrected (with the use of suitable diagrams whereappropriate).
Compare and contrast X-ray diffraction techniques with NuclearMagnetic Resonance (NMR) in the determination of the chemical andmolecular structure of inorganic microcrystalline powders.
