Diffraction

Diffraction Necsa’s diffraction facilities use complementary X-ray and neutron techniques to investigate crystalline materials non-destructively at the atomic scale—approximately 10⁻¹⁰ meters. These techniques provide information about crystallographic structure, phase composition, residual stress, texture and magnetic ordering. X-rays are suited to near-surface and localised analysis, while the greater penetration depth of…

Imaging

Imaging Necsa’s imaging facilities use X-ray and neutron techniques to investigate the internal structure of objects and materials non-destructively at the micron scale. These techniques produce two-dimensional radiographs and three-dimensional tomographic datasets that reveal internal features, defects and variations in density or composition. X-rays provide strong contrast between materials of…
