X-ray diffraction has perhaps been one of the most critical and exigent discoveries of the 20th century. Early X-ray diffraction images for tobacco mosaic virus had been collected before World War II. By 1954‚ Watson had discovered from his X-ray diffraction images that the tobacco mosaic virus had a helical structure‚ and was able to apply this to his famous DNA structure research. It is so valued because it allows the structure of a crystalline material can be determined‚ based on the diffraction

Principles of X-ray Diffraction Diffraction effects are observed when electromagnetic radiation impinges on periodic structures with geometrical variations on the length scale of the wavelength of the radiation. The interatomic distances in crystals and molecules amount to 0.15–0.4 nm which correspond in the electromagnetic spectrum with the wavelength of x-rays having photon energies between 3 and 8 keV. Accordingly‚ phenomena like constructive and destructive interference should become observable

backscatter X-ray is the right choice when compared to traditional X-rays or metal detectors.
