hello,i just want to know how the fiber bragg grating is being affected by the pressure that act on it? and where is the reference that i can refer to further reading..thanks
1. Consider a cubic crystal as shown in the figure below. As this single crystal is rotated in an x-ray spectrometer, many parallel planes of atoms besides AA and BB produce strong diffracted beams. Two such planes are shown in the figure...
I've been asking myself this question that is not entirely clear to me: the Bragg condition used to describe the constructive interference of waves on a crystal is based on the assumption of reflection. However, x-rays diffract on a crystal rather than reflect, so theoretically there is always...

A crystal is heated from 0 to 100 degrees celcius, its lattice parameter 'a' increases by 0.17% due to thermal expansion. if we observe an x-ray reflection at a bragg angle theta= 19.3 degrees at 0 degrees celcius, by how much will theta change when the sample is heated to...
I am having trouble understanding what exactly Bragg planes are physically.
I understand how they behave, in that they act like mirrors and reflect matter waves, but what exactly is the wave bouncing off of?
for instance
I can guarantee any physics textbook always has a picture like...
hi,
when calculating conditions for Bragg reflections one usually works with a (1x1) cell. For example, for the hcp crystal lattice forbidden reflections are given by the condition h+2k= 3n and l=odd. Does it mean that if we double the cell, let's say to (2x2) the condition is h+2k=(3/2)n...

Hi! I am confused about the difference between the Bragg and Laue Diffraction. It seems that both arrive at the same result, but the assumptions for both are different?

A cubic crystal with a lattice constant "a" is mounted with a [100] direction parallel to the incident x-ray beam. what would be the wave length for a bragg diffraction to occur from (110) and (111) planes?
So Bragg's law is:
2d sin (theta) = n wavelength.
So my thoughts are:
This is...
I find problems on Bragg diffraction frustrating. I can't tell how the angles are defined, nor the "planes" in the crystal--they look arbitrary. Why can't I just draw a slash through the crystal at any angle I want and get diffraction off the angles I hit with the slash? Is it just that the...

Hi! I know that x-rays interact with matter (compton effect). But I also know that when X-rays are incident on a crystal, they are diffracted following the Bragg's law.
My question is: why is the x-ray diffracted when it is incident on a crystal, but it isn't scattered by comtpon scattering?
Bragg "diffraction" or "reflection"
As you read about X-ray (or neutron) diffraction in solids, you come across authors who use the term "Bragg diffraction" and others that use the term "Bragg reflection". Some authors even use both terms in the same edition of the book (Kittel, 5th Ed.,, I...
Hello, I have a quick question regarding the bragg condition.
I know that it is most often stated as 2dSin \theta=n\lambda
But I have come across a case (Kittel chp9 pg 255, where it is written as (\vec{k}+\vec{G})^{2} = k
I cannot really see how the vectorial case is the same as the...

Can someone please explain to me what a Bragg point is? I can't find any information anywhere as to what this is. I'm going through an article about BEC of triplet states and it mentions Bragg point. For some reason, I have not encountered this before and would appreciate any help. Thanks.
I'm asked to prove that the condition for the existence of an energy gap at the boudnry of the Brillouin zone on a 1D lattice is equivalent to the condition for Bragg refraction. I don't understand this question. Doesn't an energy gap arise solely when there is a potential? Meanwhile, Bragg...

What is Bragg diffraction? (X-ray scattering??)
What is to be done with it? (I read something about beam splitting and diffraction of atoms by changing the momentum)
Thanks.
