Elements of X-ray DiffractionIntended to acquaint the reader with the theory of x-ray diffraction, the experimental methods involved, and the main applications. The book is a collection of principles and methods stressing X-ray diffraction rather than metallurgy. The book is written entirely in terms of the Bragg law and can be read without any knowledge of the reciprocal lattice. It is divided into three main parts— Fundamentals; experimental methods; and applications. Designed for beginners, not as a reference tool for the advanced reader. |

4 1 Properties of X-rays 1-1 INTRODUCTION X-rays were discovered in 1895 by
the German physicist Roentgen and were so named because their nature was
unknown at the time. Unlike ordinary light, these rays were invisible, but they ...

rejoining ray 3. What is the situation on the wave front BB' where both rays are
proceeding in the original direction? On this front, the electric vector of ray 2 has
its maximum value at the instant shown, but that of ray 3 is zero. The two rays are

(n = 1), the scattered rays 1' and 2' of Fig. 3-2 would differ in length of path (and in
phase) by one wavelength, rays I' and 3' by two wavelengths, rays 1' and 4' by
three wavelengths, and so on throughout the crystal. The rays scattered by all ...
