Analysis for the distribution of interlayer-spacing of carbon by Fourier transform of X-ray diffraction profile

Abstract

The theory for Fourier transform of X-ray diffraction intensity proposed by Hirsch was applied to the microstructure analysis of mesocarbon microbeads. The precision of the result of Fourier transform was improved by the consideration of measurement and integration conditions, and the distribution of the interlayer-spacing of carbon was roughly estimated.
