The author is a physicist at the Martin-Luther-University Halle-Wittenberg. In 1979 he was confronted with small-angle scattering experiments. It is a nonsatisfactory objective fact that this field (experiments and data evaluation) has been developed independently of the results achieved in the field of stochastic geometry. It was a part of author's life to see the connections between both these sides and try to transform and introduce known mathematical results into the scattering theory.

Geometric parameters of isotropic ensembles of right cylinders from SAS


Published: Dec 20, 2010 by Acta Crystallographica; A66, 597-601 (2010)
Authors: Wilfried Gille & Mike Kraus
Subjects: Materials Science, Nanoscience & Technology

The scattering intensity of ensembles of right homogeneous quasi-diluted cylinders with const. oval right section (RS) and volume fraction c are analyzed using the SAS correlation function and the correlation funtion. A relation between the correlation function of the RS and the correlation function of the single cylinder of height H allows the calculation of the cylinder parameters.

There exist connections between the chord length distribution (CLD) of a (three-dimensional) cylinder and its (two-dimensional) base. The corresponding integral transformation is derived from a pure mathematical point of view. The power series of the CLDs at the origin are discussed. The integral transform has been illustrated for the transition "triangle" to "triangular rod" and "rectangle" to "rectangular" rod.

Small-angle scattering analysis of the spherical half-shell

For a spherical half-shell of diameter D, analytic expressions of the SAS correlation function, the chord length distribution and the scattering intensity are analyzed. The analytic terms are surprisingly simple. The size distribution (random variable D) of an ensemble of spherical half-shells can be detected from the scattering curve.

The distribution laws for two types of isotropic uniform random chords of the hemisphere, cap-chords and basic-chords, are investigated. From both distribution densities, the chord length ditribution density of the whole hemisphere is derived. Eq. (15) is the final analytic result.

SAS curves of two parallel, infinitely long circular cylinders

Based on the SAS Correlation function (CF) of two parallel, infinitely long circular cylinders of diameter d, wholse z-axes are separated by a distance s, scattering intensities I(h,d,s) have been determined numerically. As I(h,d,s) is not band limited here, for the step from the CF to I(h) highly oscillating integrands result. The Mathematica function SequenceLimit has been used. Normalized Porod plots have been obtained. The parameters d and s can be traced back to the behavior of I(h).

Expressions are given which define the isotropized SAS correlation function of an arrangement of homogeneous, parallel, infinitely long circular cylinders of diameter d in terms of the pair correlation function of the random distance between the cylinder axes. Features of the result in terms of the pair correlation function are discussed.

A transformation method for establishing chord length distributions for infinitely long "rods" of various right-sections is presented. Here, the transformation on the two-dimensional cross section of the object is used to define the chord length distribution of the three-dimensional "rod". Examples are given. The step from the "two-dimensional ellipse" to the corresponding "three-dimensional elliptic cylinder" is described.

The set covariance of a DLm, constructed from hard spheres of constant diameter, is calculated analytically. A Mathematica program is given. There exist applications in the field of random sequential adsorption and the interpretation of small-angle scattering experiments. The calculation is based on the pair correlation function of the centers of the spheres.
