Vector phase diagram showing the superposition of waves diffracted from two different atoms in the crystal unit cell.


Welcome to the Online Dictionary of Crystallography, maintained by the Commission for Crystallographic Nomenclature of the International Union of Crystallography.


crystallography

Scattering factor of stationary C and Fe atoms plotted as a function of Bragg angle for incident X-ray wavelength of 0.70930 angstroms. Ticks on the horizontal axis correspond to Bragg angle increments of 10 degrees; ticks on the vertical axis are increments of 5 electrons.


from Greek κρυσταλλος − (krustallos) ice, crystal + γραφειν (graphein) − to write

The branch of science devoted to the study of molecular and crystalline structure and properties, with far-reaching applications in mineralogy, chemistry, physics, mathematics, biology, metallurgy and materials science.
