3.00 Credits
This course will introduce and cover in detail the underlying physics of x-ray diffraction from single crystals with various degrees of lattice perfection. Thus, both the dynamical and kinematic diffraction theories will be introduced. The emphasis will be on the dynamical or perfect crystal theory as it will be the most useful in further developing the methods to understand multiple crystal optical systems. Specific emphasis will be made to synchrotron beamline optical systems and experimental arrangements. The diffraction theory of strained crystals will also be developed with emphasis on bent crystals to perform various x-ray optical tasks. 3. 000 Credit Hours 3. 000 Lecture hours Levels: Graduate, Undergraduate Schedule Types: Lecture College of Science & Letters College Biological, Chem & Phys Sci Department
