Question

In the Laue experiment, a bcc crystal, lattice parameter a = 0.4 nm is irradiated in the [100] (or a*) direction with an X-ray beam which contains a continuous spectrum of wavelengths in the range between 0.167 nm and 0.25 nm. Use the reflecting sphere construction to determine the indices of the planes in the crystal for which Bragg's law is satisfied and draw the direction of the deflected beam for one plane in the [001] zone.

Step 1

The [100] direction of a bcc crystal corresponds to the (hkl) planes where h + k + l is even. Therefore, the possible Miller indices for the [100] direction are (200), (020), and (002). Show more…
