Dear RG members,
I want to be sure that I am on the right track. Is it ok to re-use the powder of any material such, ZnO-NPS, MgO...etc that has been irradiated by X-ray beam to produce a specific XRD pattern in other tests like FTIR, TEM, SEM, UV-VIS?. Will x-ray beam cause some atomic displacement in the lattice or other defects? How about the electrons interaction that may happen once the beam hit the powder?
Thanks in advance
