Crystallography
X-ray fluorescence (XRF) is a non-destructive analytical technique used to determine the elemental composition of materials by measuring the fluorescent X-rays emitted from a sample when it is excited by incident X-rays. This method provides valuable information about the presence and quantity of elements in a sample, making it particularly useful in phase identification and quantification when combined with diffraction techniques.
congrats on reading the definition of X-ray fluorescence. now let's actually learn it.
