Energy-dispersive X-ray diffraction

Energy-dispersive X-ray diffraction (EDXD) is a technique that combines aspects of both X-ray diffraction (XRD) and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). It is primarily used to analyze the structural properties of materials at the atomic or molecular level. The method involves measuring the intensity of X-rays diffracted by a material as a function of their energy, providing information on both the crystalline structure and elemental composition of the sample.
