For electromagnetic radiation to be diffracted the spacing in the grating should be of the same order as the wavelength
In crystals the typical interatomic spacing ~ 2-3 Å so the suitable radiation is X-rays
Hence, X-rays can be used for the study of crystal structures
Beam of electrons Target X-rays
An accelerating (/decelerating) charge radiates electromagnetic radiation

X-rays can also be refracted (refractive index slightly less than 1) and reflected (at very small angles) Refraction of X-rays is neglected for now.

A beam of X-rays directed at a crystal interacts with the electrons of the atoms in the crystal
The electrons oscillate under the influence of the incoming X-Rays and become secondary sources of EM radiation
The secondary radiation is in all directions
The waves emitted by the electrons have the same frequency as the incoming X-rays coherent
The emission will undergo constructive or destructive interference with waves scattered from other atoms
Incoming X-raysSecondaryemission

Incident and scattered waves are in phase if
Scattering from across planes is in phase
In plane scattering is in phase
![Page 16: x Ray Diffraction](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061119/546a733cb4af9f82698b456b/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Extra path traveled by incoming waves AY
Extra path traveled by scattered waves XB
These can be in phase if and only if incident = scattered
But this is still reinforced scatteringand NOT reflection

Note that in the Bragg’s equation: The interatomic spacing (a) along the plane does not appear Only the interplanar spacing (d) appears Change in position or spacing of atoms along the plane should not affect

A physical picture of scattering leading to diffraction is embodied in Laue’s equations
Bragg’s method of visualizing diffraction as “reflection” from a set of planes is a
different way of understanding the phenomenon of diffraction from crystals
The ‘plane picture’ (Bragg’s equations) are simpler and we usually stick to them
Hence, we should think twice before asking the question: “if there are no atoms in the
scattering planes, how are they scattering waves?”
![Page 22: x Ray Diffraction](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061119/546a733cb4af9f82698b456b/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Bragg’s equation is a negative law
If Bragg’s eq. is NOT satisfied NO reflection can occur
If Bragg’s eq. is satisfied reflection MAY occur
Diffraction = Reinforced Coherent Scattering
Reflection versus Scattering
Reflection Diffraction
Occurs from surface Occurs throughout the bulk
Takes place at any angle Takes place only at Bragg angles
~100 % of the intensity may be reflected Small fraction of intensity is diffracted
X-rays can be reflected at very small angles of incidence

B Scattering by an Atom
BRUSH-UP
The conventional UC has lattice points as the vertices
There may or may not be atoms located at the lattice points
The shape of the UC is a parallelepiped (Greek parallēlepipedon) in 3D
There may be additional atoms in the UC due to two reasons:
The chosen UC is non-primitive
The additional atoms may be part of the motif
![Page 39: x Ray Diffraction](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061119/546a733cb4af9f82698b456b/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
C Scattering by the Unit cell (uc)
Coherent Scattering Unit Cell (UC) is representative of the crystal structure Scattered waves from various atoms in the UC interfere to create the diffraction pattern

If atom B is different from atom A the amplitudes must be weighed by the respective atomic scattering factors (f)
The resultant amplitude of all the waves scattered by all the atoms in the UC gives the scattering factor for the unit cell
The unit cell scattering factor is called the Structure Factor (F)
Scattering by an unit cell = f(position of the atoms, atomic scattering factors)

If the blue planes are scattering in phase then on C- centering the red planes will scatter out of phase (with the blue planes- as they bisect them) and hence the (210) reflection will become extinct
This analysis is consistent with the extinction rules: (h + k) odd is absent

In case of the (310) planes no new translationally equivalent planes are added on lattice centering this reflection cannot go missing.

Reciprocal lattice is the reciprocal of a primitive lattice and is purely geometrical does not deal with the intensities of the points
Physics comes in from the following:
For non-primitive cells ( lattices with additional points) and for crystals decorated with motifs ( crystal = lattice + motif) the Reciprocal lattice points have to be weighed in with the corresponding scattering power (|Fhkl|2) Some of the Reciprocal lattice points go missing (or may be scaled up or down in intensity) Making of Reciprocal Crystal (Reciprocal lattice decorated with a motif of scattering power)
The Ewald sphere construction further can select those points which are actually observed in a diffraction experiment
![Page 62: x Ray Diffraction](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061119/546a733cb4af9f82698b456b/html5/thumbnails/62.jpg)
In crystals based on a particular lattice the intensities of particular reflections are modified they may even go missing
Crystal = Lattice + Motif
Diffraction Pattern
Position of the Lattice points LATTICE
Intensity of the diffraction spots ‘MOTIF’
There are two ways of constructing the Reciprocal Crystal:
1) Construct the lattice and decorate each lattice point with appropriate intensity
2) Use the concept as that for the real crystal

The Ewald Sphere
The reciprocal lattice points are the values of momentum transfer for which the Bragg’s equation is satisfied
For diffraction to occur the scattering vector must be equal to a reciprocal lattice vector
Geometrically if the origin of reciprocal space is placed at the tip of ki then diffraction will occur only for those reciprocal lattice points that lie on the surface of the Ewald sphere
See Cullity’s book: A15-4

Crystallite size and Strain
Bragg’s equation assumes:
Crystal is perfect and infinite
Incident beam is perfectly parallel and monochromatic
Actual experimental conditions are different from these leading various kinds of
deviations from Bragg’s condition
Peaks are not ‘’ curves Peaks are broadened
There are also deviations from the assumptions involved in the generating powder
patterns
Crystals may not be randomly oriented (textured sample) Peak intensities are
altered
In a powder sample if the crystallite size < 0.5 m
there are insufficient number of planes to build up a sharp diffraction pattern
peaks are broadened

Subtracting Instrumental Broadening
Instrumental broadening has to be subtracted to get the broadening effects due to the sample
1 Mix specimen with known coarse-grained (~ 10m), well annealed (strain free)
does not give any broadening due to strain or crystallite size (the only broadening is instrumental). A brittle material which can be
ground into powder form without leading to much stored strain is good. If the pattern of the test sample (standard) is recorded separately then the
experimental conditions should be identical (it is preferable that one or more peaks of the standard lies close to the specimen’s peaks)
2 Use the same material as the standard as the specimen to be X-rayed but with
large grain size and well annealed

Extinction Rules
Structure Factor (F): The resultant wave scattered by all atoms of the unit cell
The Structure Factor is independent of the shape and size of the unit cell; but is dependent on the position of the atoms within the cell
![Page 118: x Ray Diffraction](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061119/546a733cb4af9f82698b456b/html5/thumbnails/118.jpg)
Structure factor calculation
Consider a general unit cell for this type of structure. It can be reduced to 4 atoms of type A at 000, 0 ½ ½, ½ 0 ½, ½ ½ 0 i.e. in the fcc position and 4 atoms of type B at the sites ¼ ¼ ¼ from the A sites. This can be expressed as:
The structure factors for this structure are:
F = 0 if h, k, l mixed (just like fcc)
F = 4(fA ± ifB) if h, k, l all odd
F = 4(fA - fB) if h, k, l all even and h+ k+ l = 2n where n=odd (e.g. 200)
F = 4(fA + fB) if h, k, l all even and h+ k+ l = 2n where n=even (e.g. 400)
Consider the compound ZnS (sphalerite). Sulphur atoms occupy fcc sites with zinc atoms displaced by ¼ ¼ ¼ from these sites. Click on the animation opposite to show this structure. The unit cell can be reduced to four atoms of sulphur and 4 atoms of zinc.
Many important compounds adopt this structure. Examples include ZnS, GaAs, InSb, InP and (AlGa)As. Diamond also has this structure, with C atoms replacing all the Zn and S atoms. Important semiconductor materials silicon and germanium have the same structure as diamond.
