Crystal orientation : Inel Laue Diffraction System

LAUE diffraction is used to measure crystal orientation. The experiment differs from traditional diffractometer, since Bremsstrahlung radiation is generica cialis used instead of monochromatic beam.

In Laue X-Ray diffraction, acquisitions are made in back reflection or in transmission.
Back Reflection Laue
In back reflection method, the detector is placed between an X-Ray source and the crystal. The beams which are diffracted in a backward direction are recorded. One side of the cone of the best site clomid generic 50mg Laue reflections is defined by the instructions overnight viagra brand transmitted beam. The detector intersects the cone, with the diffraction spots generally lying on www.borgmurau.at an hyperbola.
Transmission Laue
In transmission Laue method, the detector is placed behind the crystal to record beams which are transmitted through the crystal. One side of the cone of Laue reflections is defined by the transmitted beam. The detector intersects the cone, with the diffraction spots generally lying on an ellipse.
