Особенности
Import and visualization
DIFFRAC。SAXS displays 1D and 2D SAXS data, as well as Nanography maps. Supported data formats are brml, raw, ascii (two-column xy and three-column xye with different units), gfrm and tiff.
Data pre-processing
DIFFRAC。SAXS allows extracting the pure scattering signal of the nanostructures straightaway.
In a first step the sample transmission is determined using glassy carbon as a reference or based on the primary beam intensity ratio. 2D data are subsequently sliced or integrated through optimized algorithms into 1D data for further evaluation.
DIFFRAC。SAXS can perform both the transmission calculation and the background correction automatically, without the need for user intervention, if the data measurement strategy is set up with DIFFRAC.WIZARD.
SAXS specific plots and evaluations
Traditionally, SAXS curves are displayed as plots with specific axis scaling that allow a quick graphical check of the data quality, and straightforward parameter evaluation such as the Guinier, Porod and Kratky plots. In DIFFRAC.SAXS all plot types can be readily selected by name. Evaluation of the related parameters, such the radius of gyration (Rg), the forward scattered intensity, the Porod scattering invariant, surface-to-volume ratio etc. is done fully automatically or interactively in a step-by-step procedure.
Model-based fitting
DIFFRAC。粉煤灰特性非线性最小二乘fitting of 1D SAXS data based on direct modeling of nanostructures in solution using geometrical shapes (sphere, cylinder, etc.) or by dedicated polymer models (chains, Gaussian star, etc.). It also takes into account polydispersity and concentration effects for complete sample characterization. The corresponding model parameters are determined by fitting the experimental SAXS curve.
Pair Distance Distribution Function
The Pair Distance Distribution Function (PDDF) p(r) is the distribution of the distance taken between any two points within the scattering particle. The PDDF is function of the size and shape of the particle and relates to the scattering curve by a sin Fourier transform.
