Small-angle scattering (SAS) is a powerful technique for studying nanoscale samples. So far, however, its use in research has been held back by its inability to operate without some prior knowledge of ...

Small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) has emerged as a cornerstone technique for the investigation of structure on length scales spanning roughly 1 to 300 nm. By detecting neutrons scattered at small ...

What is Small-Angle Neutron Scattering (SANS)? Small-Angle Neutron Scattering (SANS) is a powerful analytical technique used to characterize the structure and properties of materials at the nanoscale.

An invaluable tool for analyzing liposomes is Small-Angle X-ray Scattering (SAXS). Liposomes, a class of nanoparticles, have a phospholipid bilayer wall by which they are characterized. They are ...

Small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) is a non-destructive technique for probing the organisation of polymers at nanometre to micrometre length scales. By measuring the intensity of X-rays scattered at ...

Small angle X-ray scattering, or SAXS, is an experimental method where the intensity of the scattered X-rays is measured as a function of the scattering angle. The information obtained in a SAXS ...

Schematic of a grazing incidence small and wide angle X-ray scattering (GISAXS/GIWAXS) experimental setup showing the incident (αi) and the scattered angles along the horizontal (2θf) and vertical (αf ...

Olivier Sandre, Florian Aubrit, Benoit Maxit, David Jacob and Sylvain Boj. Anisotropic nanoparticles (NP), including nanodiscs, nanorods, nanotubes, etc., are used extensively in fields like medicine ...

Why does lead behave so differently from every other atomic nucleus when struck by electrons? A team of physicists at Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (JGU) has taken an important step toward ...

Rapid advances in nanotechnology and nucleic acid chemistry are turbocharging pharmaceutical pipelines, speeding the development of treatments for previously incurable medical conditions. These ...
