Grazing-incidence synchrotron radiation diffraction studies on irradiated Ce-doped and pristine Y-stabilized ZrO2 at the Rossendorf beamline

Irradiated Ce-doped yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) and pure YSZ phases were characterized using grazing incidence (GI) synchrotron radiation diffraction. A corresponding module for measurements in GI mode was developed at ROBL and relevant technical details of sample alignment and data collection are presented.
