2 Types of <strong>XRD</strong>:<br />

(2) Powder <strong>Diffraction</strong>: X-ray finely powdered samples; r<strong>and</strong>om<br />

orientation ensure that all {hkl} planes will satisfy Bragg’s Law<br />

Ex. d 111 = 5Å {111} has high density<br />

n=1; d 111 = 5Å; CuK# = 1.54Å<br />

Then:<br />

n ! = 2d sin "<br />

(1) (1.54Å)/(2)(5Å) = sin "<br />

" = 17.74°<br />

Therefore, grains oriented at " = 17.74° will give strong diffraction peak<br />

In practice: measure " <strong>and</strong> intensity<br />

Calculate d hkl
