A beam of x rays of wavelength 29.3 pm is incident on a calcite crystal of lattice spacing 0.313 nm. Find the smallest angle between the crystal planes and the beam that will result in constructive reflection of the x rays. (b) What other angles would result in constructive reflection (if any)?
X-rays with wavelengths of 128 pm was used to study a crystal which produced a reflection of 15.8 degrees. Assuming first order diffraction (n = 1), what is the distance between the planes of atoms (d)?
A CD-ROM is used instead of a crystal in an electron diffraction experiment. The surface of the CD-ROM has tracks of tiny pits with a uniform spacing of 1.60 mm. (a) If the speed of the electrons is 1.26 X 104 m/s, at which values of q will the m = 1 and m = 2 intensity maxima appear? (b) The scattered electrons in these maxima strike at normal incidence a piece of photographic film that is 50.0 cm from the CD-ROM. What is the spacing on the film between these maxima?
