Journal of Materials Characterization
Powder Diffraction is a quarterly journal published by the JCPDS-International Centre for Diffraction Data through the Cambridge University Press. The journal focuses on practical technique, publishing articles relating to the widest range of application from materials analysis to epitaxial growth of thin films and to the latest advances in software. Although practice is emphasized, theory is not neglected, especially as its discussion relates to better understanding of technique.
Cambridge University Press publishes over 280 peer-reviewed academic journals in a wide variety of subject areas. They have over 50 offices across the globe and publish over 40,000 titles by authors from over 100 countries.
Open Access articles, Abstracts, Editorials, and International Reports from Powder Diffraction Journal are available online free of charge at Cambridge Core. A subscription is necessary for articles, including early viewing of FirstView articles. Authors, titles, and page numbers are listed in the Past Issue Pages.

On the Cover: The cover figure was prepared using figures from the manuscript “Adsorption of Ar into zeolite AL-MFI (NH4)” by Colin Scherry, James Kaduk, Winnie Wong-Ng and Huong Nguyen in this issue of Powder Diffraction.
The upper left figure shows the crystal structure of NIST Reference Material (RM 8852), a ZSM-5 alumino silicate zeolite ((NH4)3.27Al3.27Si92.73O192(H2O)26.7 with framework type MFI. This Al-MFI (NH4) is viewed down the b-axis. The zig-zag channels are parallel to the a-axis. The argon/helium adsorption of RM 8852 was studied as a function of temperature and gas pressure. The upper right figure shows the crystal structure of Ar-filled Al-MFI viewed down the b-axis (Ar is colored blue and purple). The lower left figure show the unit cell volume changes as a function of temperature and atmosphere. The lower right figure shows the Ar site occupancies at 90K as a function of time from change of gas for each of the six different Ar crystallographic sites.
Powder Diffraction is now an online only journal. If you are interested in learning more, please see this FAQ from Cambridge University Press. You can also read more here about ongoing print reduction efforts at CUP in line with environmental and sustainability targets.

ICDD’s international journal, Powder Diffraction, published quarterly plus an annual special topical issue, in collaboration with the Denver X-ray Conference Organizing Committee, has increased services for the subscribers of Powder Diffraction and authors of Advances in X-ray Analysis (AXA). Beginning in 2006, ICDD offered access to of the previous year’s edition of AXA to Powder Diffraction institutional print/online subscribers. This effectively doubles the number of articles annually available to Powder Diffraction subscribers and significantly increases the circulation for the authors in Advances in X-ray Analysis.
Subject coverage includes:
- Techniques and procedures in X-ray powder diffractometry
- Advances in instrumentation
- Study of materials including organic materials, minerals, metals and thin film superconductors
- Publication of powder data on new materials

Powder Diffraction is presently available online at Cambridge Core. Since initial implementation there has been a steady increase in online subscription readership. This has occurred because of the participation of Powder Diffraction in a number of large publishing consortia. By contract, these consortia provide access to a large number of users solely by online access. The web site is also visited thousands of times per month by non-subscribers who view the contents and abstracts. Cambridge University Press offers several online slots for banners in addition to print ads.
