Studying the atomic structure of nanostructured materials presents a special chal- lenge because our extensive crystallographic toolbox begins to lose its power on the nano- scale. The presumption of periodicity is a poor approximation when structural correlation lengths are limited to a few tens of nanometres or less and alternative approaches are needed. Here we give an overview of recent results where the use of the atomic pair distribution function analysis of x-ray and neutron powder…
