The tremendous interest in nanoscale structures such as quantum dots (zero-dimension)
and wires (quasi-one-dimension) stems from their size-dependent properties. One …

This paper summarizes the scientific trends associated with the rapid development of the
technique of high‐energy X‐ray diffraction over the past decade pertaining to the field of …

Silica has been frequently studied using infrared and Raman spectroscopy due to its
importance in many practical contexts where its surface chemistry plays a vital role. The …

High-energy x-rays from a synchrotron radiation source allow us to obtain high-quality
