Live from the Lab: What is XRD?

[@nooral-rawi8004]

Fantastic video. Perfect explanations, simplified, and easy to follow up. I loved every bit of it, from the first conversation with simplified metaphors, the mechanism video, the lab demonstration and showing the different types of XRD machines and how they work, and finally, the Q and A session. Thank you endlessly for this amazing piece of art.

Really superb explanation do more videos, please show how SEM, TEM and HR-TEM are working.

thank you for the demonstration.

can use XRD to detect crack in the ceramic sample?

[@Bruker]

XRD is more used to determine the microscopic structure of a sample. For detecting a crack in a ceramic sample you would probably use a technique like 3D X-Ray Microscopy (XRM). You can find out more about this methode at www.bruker.com/xrm .

You have shown the power XRD experiment. As a result it is showing the spectrum same as NMR spectra. How it identifies the morphology of molecule.

[@jongiencke7245]

Although both spectra have a series of peaks which are a fingerprint for that material, the origin is quite different. NMR peaks are linked to the resonant magnetic frequencies fo the nuclei in the sample, where XRD peaks originate from scattering of x-rays from the electrons in the material. In some fields of research, for example pharmaceuticals, both techniques are used to gain a full picture of the sample.

[@natehenderson1790]

Another way of thinking about this is that NMR will provide information about the structure and bonding of a molecule - how all of the atoms are linked together. XRD provides information about how many of those same molecules pack together in a solid like building blocks.

would be cool to record it without the mask, i can barely understand it
