Laue class

Radiation and particles, i.e. x-rays, neutrons and electrons, interact with a crystal in a way that the resulting diffraction pattern is always centrosymmetric, regardless of whether an inversion center is present in the crystal or not. This leads to another classification of crystallographic point groups, called Laue classes. The Laue class defines the symmetry of the diffraction pattern produced by a single crystal, and can be easily inferred from a point group by adding the center of inversion (see Table 1.10). [Pg.31]

Max von Laue (1879-1960). German physicist who was the first to observe and explain the phenomenon of x-ray diffraction in 1912 Laue was awarded Nobel Prize in Physics in 1914 for his discovery of the diffraction of x-rays by crystals .

Crystal system Laue class Powder Laue class Point groups [Pg.32]

As seen in Table 1.10, there is one powder Laue class per crystal system, except for the trigonal and hexagonal crystal systems, which share the same powder Laue class, 6/mmm. In other words, not every Laue class can be established from a simple visual analysis of powder diffraction data. This occurs because certain diffraction peaks with potentially different intensities (the property which enables us to differentiate between I ue classes 4/m and 4/mmm 3, 3m, 6/m and 6/mmm m3 and m3m) completely overlap since they are observed at identical Bragg angles. Hence, only Laue classes that differ from one another in the shape of the unit cell (see Table 1.11, below), are ab initio discernible from powder diffraction data without complete structure determination. [Pg.32]

As a consequence of Friedel s law, the diffraction pattern exhibits the symmetry of a centrosymmetric crystal class. For example, a crystal in class 2, on account of the 1 symmetry imposed on its diffraction pattern, will appear to be in class 2/m. The same result also holds for crystals in class m. Therefore, it is not possible to distinguish the classes 2, m, and 2/m from their diffraction patterns. The same effect occurs in other crystal systems, so that the 32 crystal classes are classified into only 11 distinct Laue groups according to the symmetry of the diffraction pattern, as shown in Table 9.4.1. [Pg.325]

Knowledge of the diffraction symmetry of a crystal is useful for its classification. If the Laue group is observed to be 4/mmm, the crystal system is tetragonal, the crystal class must be chosen from 422,4mm, 42m, and 4/mmm, and the space group is one of those associated with these four crystallographic point groups. [Pg.326]

Both Table 5.7 and Figure 5.6 account for the differences among powder Laue classes, which are distinguishable at this stage, and are suitable for indexing of powder diffraction patterns.

Selection Rules for all Laue Classes. The selection rules for the harmonic coefficients are derived from the invariance of the pole distribution to the operations of the crystal and sample Laue groups. The invariance conditions are applied to every function t/ (h, y) from Equation (36), as the terms of different / in this equation are independent. If we compare Equations (38) and (39) with (37) we observe that they have an identical structure. On the other side the sample and the crystal coordinate systems were similarly defined. As a consequence the selection rules for the coefficients of", flf", and respectively y) ", resulting from the sample symmetry must be identical with the selection rules for the coefficients A P and resulting from the crystal symmetry, if the sample and the crystal Laue groups are the same. The exception is the case of cylindrical sample symmetry that has no correspondence with the crystal symmetry. In this case, only the coefficients af and y l are different from zero, if they are not forbidden by the crystal symmetry. [Pg.344]

Obviously, Equation (97) is much more convenient than Equation (96) as there are only 36 integrals to calculate in place of 1296. Behnken and Hauk adopted a derivation path starting from the strain components in the sample reference system. In this report the condition of invariance of the peak shift to the operations of the point group is violated for some Laue classes. Later, Popa reported invariant expressions for all Laue groups that were derived starting from Equation (97). Here we follow this derivation. [Pg.359]

Selection Rules for all Laue Classes. To find the selection rules for all Laue classes the invariance conditions to rotations are applied to the peak shift weighted by texture (ah(y))Fh(y). As the terms of different I in Equation (118) are independent, the invariance conditions must be applied to every //. [Pg.367]
