Novel microstructures for solids /

In the early part of the 20th century, x-rays were first used for the investigation of the atomic structure of solids. Until the 1980s experimental evidence suggested that virtually all solid materials were either amorphous or ordered three-dimensional structures with translational and rotational sy...
