Glossary
- x-ray diffractometer An instrument that uses a crystal to diffract x-rays for the measurement of the intensities of the diffracted rays.
- diffractometer A measurement device used to study the structure of matter using the diffraction of electromagnetic radiation.
- diffraction As a wavefront of light passes by an opaque edge or through an opening, secondary weaker wavefronts are generated, apparently originating at that edge. These secondary wavefronts will interfere with the primary wavefront as well as with each other...
