Scherrer equation: crystallite size t = Kλ/(β cos θ)

Layer 2 — Chemistryin the nanochemistry subtree

Scherrer equation (Scherrer 1918): for a crystallite of mean size t, an ideal narrow X-ray source at wavelength λ produces a Bragg peak of full-width-half-maximum β (radians, instrument-corrected) at diffraction angle 2θ, where t = K λ /…
