  2. Bragg's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bragg's_law

    The angles that Bragg's law predicts are still approximately right, but in general there is a lattice of spots which are close to projections of the reciprocal lattice that is at right angles to the direction of the electron beam. (In contrast, Bragg's law predicts that only one or perhaps two would be present, not simultaneously tens to hundreds.)

  3. Bragg peak - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bragg_peak

    The Bragg curve of 5.49 MeV alphas in air has its peak to the right and is skewed to the left, unlike the x-ray beam below.. The Bragg peak is a pronounced peak on the Bragg curve which plots the energy loss of ionizing radiation during its travel through matter.

  4. Acousto-optic modulator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acousto-optic_modulator

    An acousto-optic modulator (AOM), also called a Bragg cell or an acousto-optic deflector (AOD), uses the acousto-optic effect to diffract and shift the frequency of light using sound waves (usually at radio-frequency). They are used in lasers for Q-switching, telecommunications for signal modulation, and in spectroscopy for frequency control.

  5. Bragg plane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bragg_plane

    Ray diagram of Von Laue formulation. 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. X-ray crystallography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X-ray_crystallography

    In 1912–1913, the younger Bragg developed Bragg's law, which connects the scattering with evenly spaced planes within a crystal. [8] [23] [24] [25] The Braggs, father and son, shared the 1915 Nobel Prize in Physics for their work in crystallography. The earliest structures were generally simple; as computational and experimental methods ...

  7. Brillouin zone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brillouin_zone

    In general, the n-th Brillouin zone consists of the set of points that can be reached from the origin by crossing exactly n − 1 distinct Bragg planes. A related concept is that of the irreducible Brillouin zone , which is the first Brillouin zone reduced by all of the symmetries in the point group of the lattice (point group of the crystal).

  8. Davisson–Germer experiment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Davisson–Germer_experiment

    The experimental outcome was 0.165 nm via Bragg's law, which closely matched the predictions. As Davisson and Germer state in their 1928 follow-up paper to their Nobel prize winning paper, "These results, including the failure of the data to satisfy the Bragg formula, are in accord with those previously obtained in our experiments on electron ...

  9. Ewald's sphere - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ewald's_sphere

    The Ewald sphere is a geometric construction used in electron, neutron, and x-ray diffraction which shows the relationship between: . the wavevector of the incident and diffracted beams,
