Atomic Pair Distribution Function Analysis: A Primer

Unlock the power of Atomic Pair Distribution Function (PDF) analysis with this essential primer from The Bookish Owl. This book revolutionizes understanding material structure beyond the average crystal, leveraging advanced techniques for nanocrystals, clusters, molecules, and nanoporous materials. Explore local distortions, defects, and real-time structural changes during synthesis or in operating devices. While experimental methods are accessible, extracting precise structural information through modeling can be challenging. This guide bridges that knowledge gap, offering practical, real-world examples that build confidence for graduate students and research scientists. Learn to apply PDF methods independently and answer your critical scientific questions. Dive into the future of structural analysis.
