1 introduction to SAXS for polymers -a user view- Luigi Balzano DSM Ahead/Material Science Center Geleen, The Netherlands Synchrotron and Neutron Workshop (SyNeW) 2015 Utrecht, June

2 outline basics of X-rays what are X-rays and how they work generation of X-rays interference of waves / Bragg s law the SAXS machinery morphological information from SAXS data interpretation structure and form factor polydispersity, lattice disorder what is in for you? examples summary

3 generation of X-rays lab sources, synchrotron and nebulas

4 history Wilhelm C. Röntgen Nobel Prize in Physics (1901) Hand mit Ringen (Hand with Rings): first "medical" X-ray (of Ms Röntgen)

5 commercial applications material science flight tube (vacuum) contains: sample detector sample/cell handling generator

6 brightest source of X-rays crab nebula synchrotron sources (one of the) brightest source of X-rays that can be focused synchrotron

7 typical experimental setup (WAXD) instrument-independent data data reduction transmission mode non-destructive no sample preparation time resolved (30 frames/s) space resolved (beam spot size limiting, 50nm) statistically sound information combination with other techniques possible

8 interference of waves why do we use X-rays? how are patterns formed? basic interpretation: Bragg s law

9 X-ray patterns: interference of electromagnetic waves X-rays scattering/diffraction patterns are the result of the interference between the incoming X-ray photons and the grating formed by the scatterers in the system (lattice) for positive interference, the wavelength should be of the order of the size/distance between scatterers crystals and molecules often have characteristic sizes ~ Å, just about the X-rays wavelength ( they are suitable for investigation with X-rays)

10 interference of waves single slit interference two slit interference N-slit interference. waves are scattered in phase when the path length difference is an integer number of wavelengths n = d sin is the angle where constructive interference takes place

11 examples FraunhoferDiffractionUsingAFastFourierTransform-author.nb MultipleSlitDiffractionPattern-author.nb

12 Bragg s law example of X-ray wave interference when a sample is irradiated with X-rays: waves are scattered in phase (constructive interference) when the path length difference is an integer number of wavelengths path length difference = n wavelength W.L. Bragg W.H. Bragg dsin n Nobel Prize in Physics (1915)

13 application of Bragg s law length scales in SAXS and WAXD 2 dsin n typical length scales: d 2sin small angles (SAXS) large d wide angles (WAXD) small d SAXS 0.1nm d 60 nm 2sin(0.1/ 2) WAXD 0.1nm d 0. 60nm 2sin(9 / 2) 0.1nm SAXS WAXD

14 macro scale spherulites length scales morphology of semi-crystalline polymers meso scale lamellae micro scale unit cells µm nm 1-10 Å SAXS 0.1nm d 60 nm 2sin(0.1/ 2) WAXD 0.1nm d 0. 60nm 2sin(9 / 2) 0.1nm SAXS WAXD detailed information on the morphology of semicrystalline polymers can be obtained with X-rays

15 morphological information from SAXS modeling with form and structure factors

16 the SAXS signal scattered X-rays X-ray radiation 1 2 information on size, shape, content of the phases scattering is caused by etherogeneties in the electron density I( D scattered intensity is the Fourier transform of the electron density correlation function in real space

17 density profile (x) Fourier transform the SAXS signal scattering amplitude F( (amplitude of the form factor) can be complex, not measurable (X-rays have too high frequency) square scattering intensity (form factor) F( 2 loss of information (phase), intrinsic feature of the data recording process ensemble average (polydispersity) orientation average measured intensity I( I( Stribeck N - X-ray scattering of Soft Matter Schultz JM Diffraction for Material Scientists Glatter O and Kratky O Small Angle X-ray Scattering Balta-Calleja FJ and Vonk CG- X-ray scattering of synthetic polymers and more thanks B.

35 take away SAXS is a relatively simple technique that can be used to extract morphological information in static and dynamic conditions the SAXS signal comes from e - density differences and can be seen as the Fourier transform of the real-space morphology SAXS data can be modeled in terms of form and structure factors (also in other ways ) mathematical complexity should not scare you! Very many form and structure factors are tabled in literature modeling provides qualitative and quantitative information on size, size distribution and morphology of scatterers results are model dependent model assumptions need to be validated by other techniques
