Emergence of nanoscale features. Typical diffraction patterns from CTAB–H2O (40 mol% CTAB) hexagonal mesophases data collected with (a) a 25 × 250 µm SAXS beam and (b) a 4 × 4 µm XFM beam. Profiles indicate the intensity fluctuations (i.e. relative to the mean) around the (10) diffraction peak. Omitted regions are covered by detector masks. (c) Angular correlations of the (10) diffraction ring from XFM data showing clear peaks at nπ/3; (d) r = r′ slice through the data collected at the XFM beamline. Nanoscale structural features can be observed below 6 nm.
