Joint
ALS/SSRL Workshop on X-ray microdiffraction |
 |
|
X-ray diffraction using sub-micron white and monochromatic beams has been recently made possible by the development of high brilliance third generation synchrotron sources and progress in x-ray micro-focusing technologies. Among the many applications in the field of Materials Science and Technologies, the ability to probe single grains in thin film and patterned structures can provide structural and strain information not possible with other techniques. The purpose of the workshop is to present the possibilities now available using x-ray microbeams as a new characterization tool and to identify new potential applications and areas that would broaden the range of applicability of this technique. Register for this Workshop via the ALS Users Meeting website. |
