A computer-controlled diffractometer has been built which permits intensity measurements to be made in any direction in reciprocal space in the diffraction plane with step sizes down to 0.01" of arc. Three examples illustrate the performance and application of the instrument: (a) perfect silicon, (b) gadolinium gallium garnet with growth striations and (c) niobium with low-angle grain boundaries.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
