Forty years later, images from the X-ray diffraction work of Rosalind Franklin enabled the discovery of one of the most famous molecular structures ever determined, Watson and Crick’s DNA double helix ...
The working principle of the XRD method involves the scattering of X-rays due to the revolution of electrons in the atom’s nucleus when the rays strike on the nanoparticles.

In this interview, AZoM talks to Daniel Brau, Managing Director of Photonic Science, about the working principles of diffraction Laue cameras, and what makes Photonic Science's Laue crystal ...
A collaboration between Argonne and several universities has led to the creation of a new high-throughput X-ray diffraction instrument that will enable materials research and clear the way for ...
Without X-ray diffraction, we’d never have worked out the structure of DNA. It’s also my favourite prize because it’s a beautiful mixture of fundamental scientific principles, bringing in ...
Photograph 51, the famous X-ray diffraction image of DNA taken by X-ray crystallographer Rosalind Franklin and Raymond Gosling in 1952, was a key piece of data that lead to James Watson and ...
