small angle x ray scattering

What are the limitations of SAXS?

While SAXS is a powerful tool, it does have some limitations:
Low Resolution: SAXS provides information at the nanoscale but lacks atomic-level resolution. Complementary techniques such as Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) may be required for detailed atomic analysis.
Complex Data Interpretation: The data obtained from SAXS can be complex and requires sophisticated analysis methods and software to interpret accurately.
Sample Requirements: SAXS requires relatively homogeneous samples and may not be suitable for highly heterogeneous materials.
