X-ray diffraction (XRD) is an essential technique to identify the structures and compositions of newly developed materials. However, XRD patterns consist of multiple peaks, and it is not always ...

XRD works by directing X-rays onto a crystalline material and analyzing the angles and intensities of the diffracted beams. The atomic planes within the crystal act as a three-dimensional grating, ...

2D-XRD, or two-dimensional X-ray diffraction, is a powerful analytical technique used to study the atomic and molecular structure of crystalline materials at the nanoscale. It provides detailed ...

X-ray diffraction (XRD) is a powerful non-destructive analytical technique used to evaluate crystalline materials and determine their structural properties. As one of the most widely used ...

Atomic coordination patterns in bulk materials can predict stable MXene structures, offering a new design framework that expands the 2D materials landscape beyond conventional synthesis routes.

There are around 20 known MXene structures at present, and some of the main excitement around these materials comes from some of their potential applications, including as energy storage materials. 2 ...

New research clarifies how synthesis methods influence the oxidation behavior of Ti 3 AlC 2 MAX phases and their resulting MXenes, revealing a disconnect in how oxygen content affects each. This work ...
