  2. Bragg's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bragg's_law

    This equation, Bragg's law, describes the condition on θ for constructive interference. [12] A map of the intensities of the scattered waves as a function of their angle is called a diffraction pattern. Strong intensities known as Bragg peaks are obtained in the diffraction pattern when the scattering angles satisfy Bragg condition.

  3. Laue equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laue_equations

    Laue equation. In crystallography and solid state physics, the Laue equations relate incoming waves to outgoing waves in the process of elastic scattering, where the photon energy or light temporal frequency does not change upon scattering by a crystal lattice. They are named after physicist Max von Laue (1879–1960).

  4. Distributed Bragg reflector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distributed_Bragg_reflector

    Time-resolved simulation of a pulse reflecting from a Bragg mirror. A distributed Bragg reflector (DBR) is a reflector used in waveguides, such as optical fibers.It is a structure formed from multiple layers of alternating materials with different refractive index, or by periodic variation of some characteristic (such as height) of a dielectric waveguide, resulting in periodic variation in the ...

  5. Bragg plane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bragg_plane

    In physics, a Bragg plane is a plane in reciprocal space which bisects a reciprocal lattice vector, , at right angles. [1] The Bragg plane is defined as part of the Von Laue condition for diffraction peaks in x-ray diffraction crystallography .

  6. Acousto-optic modulator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acousto-optic_modulator

    Diffraction from a sinusoidal modulation in a thin crystal mostly results in the m = −1, 0, +1 diffraction orders. Cascaded diffraction in medium thickness crystals leads to higher orders of diffraction. In thick crystals with weak modulation, only phasematched orders are diffracted; this is called Bragg diffraction. The angular deflection ...

  7. Diffraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diffraction

    Diffraction is the same physical effect as interference, but interference is typically applied to superposition of a few waves and the term diffraction is used when many waves are superposed. [1]: 433 Italian scientist Francesco Maria Grimaldi coined the word diffraction and was the first to record accurate observations of the phenomenon in 1660.

  8. Dynamical theory of diffraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Dynamical_theory_of_diffraction

    The sections below deal with dynamical diffraction of X-rays. Reflectivities for Laue and Bragg geometries, top and bottom, respectively, as evaluated by the dynamical theory of diffraction for the absorption-less case. The flat top of the peak in Bragg geometry is the so-called Darwin Plateau.
