AbstractTill now the only effective method of direct determination of structural parameters has been X-ray diffraction structural analysis. This method applied to crystalline materials has proved a great success and applied to noncrystalline substances like for example inorganic glasses, is becoming more and more successful.Beginning with the W. Ostwald proposition /1913/ carried out by W. Friedrich /1913/ and P. Debye /1915/ through the papers by B.E. Warren et al. /1934–1942/ or by E.A. Poray-Koshits et al. /1934–1942/ till the most recently published papers devoted to structural studies of noncrystalline /amorphous/ materials we follow a significant progress in technology and methodology of these studies.The resulting significant improvement to the accuracy of results yields much more accurate structural models of non-crystalline materials.

ABSTRACTA new method of X-ray diffraction analysis of structural inhomogeneities in the quartz/Si02/n based inorganic glasses is presented. The method enables the determination of structural changes occuring in the real nodal lattice in the regions of 10…20 Å or more as well as substructural changes in the regions 5…15 Å comparable to the molecular size of SiO2…SiO4. In consequence these changes can be correlated with approximate nodal lattice models of different degree of ordering. The applied method provided the possibility of constructing structural models of nodal lattices describing the surface and inner layers of the real glasses, changes in the local inhomogeneities as well as boundaries in water-gel associates.

A direct method for determining powder diffraction data from a range of depths is described, where the linear absorption coefficient may vary with depth. A series of traditional data collections with varying angles of incidence are required, and the X-ray diffraction data arising from specific depths will be calculated by the transformation of these measured, angle-dependent spectra. These may then be analysed using any conventional method in order to gain information about characteristics of the sample in question at specific depths. Regularisation techniques have been used to solve the governing Fredholm integral equation to determine the depth-dependent diffractograms. The method has been validated by the use of simulated data having known model profiles, and has also been applied to experimental data from polycrystalline thin film samples.
