ReciprocalSpaceSimulation

ReciprocalSpaceSimulation[crystal,{L1,L2},origin,dmin]
plots a simulation of the reciprocal space of crystal, with L1 and L2 defining the layer plane centred at origin and dmin the resolution.

ReciprocalSpaceSimulation[crystal,λ,{L1,L2},origin,dmin]
plots a simulation of the reciprocal space of crystal at wavelength λ, with L1 and L2 defining the layer plane centred at origin and dmin the resolution.

Details and OptionsDetails and Options

  • There is a Tooltip associated with each node (reflection) denoting the Miller indices.
  • The further out the X-rays scatter (larger Bragg angles θ), the higher the resolution of the data set becomes. For a given maximum scattering angle , there corresponds a minimum InterplanarSpacing that we can resolve in a diffraction pattern. From Bragg's law we find the resolution: (normally in the range from to ) [1]
