Why is Elastic Scattering Important in Nanotechnology?
Elastic scattering is fundamental to various analytical techniques used in nanotechnology. Techniques like Electron Microscopy (TEM and SEM) and X-ray Diffraction (XRD) rely on elastic scattering to probe the atomic structure of nanomaterials. These methods allow researchers to visualize and analyze the arrangement of atoms, defects, and other critical features that influence the properties of nanomaterials.
