Function REFRAC returns material properties interacted with x-rays.

refrac('Formula',energy,massdensity) gives refraction in terms of disperion(delta) and absorption(beta), as well as critical angle and attenuation length corresponding to the input energy. Also a plot of these properties is given.

For example:
>>result=refrac('Si3N4',8.04778,3.44)
result =
formula: 'Si3N4'
massDensity: 3.44
eletronDensity: 1.4767e+028
energy: 8.0478
wavelength: 1.5406e-010
dispersion: 1.1164e-005
absorption: 1.6477e-007
criticalAngle: 0.27074
attLength: 7.4403e-005
