This book presents a physical approach to the diffraction phenomenon and its applications in materials science.Part one is a historical presentation of the discovery of X-ray diffraction.Part two is devoted to a description of the physical phenomenon of X-ray diffraction on perfect and imperfect crystals.A detailed analysis of the instruments used for the characterization of powdered materials or thin films is proposed in part three. The description of the processing of measured signals and their results is given.In the final part, the author presents recent developments relating to quantitati.  Read more...
