The HE-XRD setup at this beamline is described in more to cover the low-Q region (≈0.1 Å ). A vacuum chamber at HE-XRD setup was used to suppress detail elsewhere [39]. Although radiation damage to individual nanoparticles should be reduced as air scattering around the sample. The HE-XRD setup at this beamline is described in more detail much as possible, nanoparticles on a metallic substrate can be healed through a healing mechanism elsewhere [39]. Although radiation damage to individual nanoparticles should be reduced as much that involves a neutralization process [40]. as possible,ExnpaenroimpeanrttailclIe(Qs)odnataamwetraelolibctasiunbedstfroarteMcnaOn nbaenhopearlteicdletshorfouapgphroaxihmeatleilnyg10mnemchsainzei.sm that involveBsaackngerouutnradlinztaetniosintypwraoscdeestser[m40in].ed by carrying out a measurement on a bare substrate.

The proper type peak, centered at 3.3 Å–1, is seen. Other peaks are an order of magnitude weaker and represent subtraction of the background is important for capturing the diffuse scattering signal in the data diffuse scattering. It is likely that the diffraction peaks of the MnO film are too weak to be observed properly. Figure 2 shows the experimental I(Q) results for the MnO film sample.

Information on crystallite size can be obtained by strong and sharp diffraction peaks of the silicon substrate, as has been reported previously for MnOx analyzing X-ray diffraction peaks where the peak width is inversely proportional to crystallite size, on stainless steel [6]. TEM analysis provides grain size information. The particle size obtained via TEM is usually larger than the crystallite size given by XRD. This is to be expected since a particle typically consists of several crystallites. Information on crystallite size can be obtained by analyzing X-ray diffraction peaks where the peak width is inversely proportional to crystallite size, effects of other factors that contribute to the peak width such as instrumental resolution, temperature and microstrain notwithstanding. a
