Students have asked these similar questions
The atoms in a crystal lie in planes separated by a few tenths of a nanometer. Can a crystal be used to produce a diffraction pattern with visible light as it does for x-rays? Explain your answer with reference to Bragg’s law.
(a) What are X-rays? Differentiate between characteristic (monochromatic) and continuous X-rays. What are Laue equations for diffraction of X-rays by a crystalline solid? Show that the Bragg's equation is a special case of the Laue equations.
X-rays of wavelength 0.0628 nm are scattered from a crystal with a grazing angle of 11.3°. Assume m = 1 for this process. Calculate the spacing between the crystal planes. d = nm
