X-Ray Diffraction by Disordered Lamellar Structures Theory and Applications to Microdivided Silicates and Carbons

X-Ray Diffraction by Disordered Lamellar Structures Theory and Applications to Microdivided Silicates and Carbons / by Victor A. Drits, Cyril Tchoubar.

New methods for the determination of the nature, proportion, and distribution of structural defects in microcrystallized lamellar systems are of utmost importance not only to experimentalists but also to theoreticians. Mathematical formalism - indispensable for such analyses - is well-illustrated by...
