The provided text offers a comprehensive analysis of X-ray diffractometer design, emphasizing how Bragg's Law is a core engineering specification influencing every component. It systematically describes the X-ray generation subsystem, comparing various sources from sealed tubes to synchrotrons, and then details the goniometer mechanics, including Bragg-Brentano and parallel-beam geometries. The text also explains the function of optical components that condition the X-ray beam, the variety of sample environments for diverse applications, and the evolution of X-ray detection technologies. Finally, it touches upon system integration, control software, and crucial safety measures, concluding with case studies illustrating application-driven design configurations.
