Figure 2: Nanocrystal X-ray scattering data.
From: Visualization of nanocrystal breathing modes at extreme strains

(a) Azimuthally integrated Q-dependent scattering pattern from 18 × 4.5 nm CdS nanorods shown at t=0 (black) and t=500 fs (magenta). Miller indices are indicated for all reflections. (b) As above for CdSe 3.4 nm diameter spheres. Narrow peaks associated with organic surfactants are superimposed on the merged-together low Q reflections. (c) The orientation of each set of lattice planes probed shown with respect to the nanorod c axis, and the orientation of the nanocrystal with respect to the incident and outgoing X-ray wave vectors. Norm., normaliz`ed.
