Figure 5
The intensity of crystals with cubic (top) and spherical (bottom) shape, plotted in the plane, and with l having an integer value. The sizes of the crystals are the same as in Fig. 4 . For the cubic crystal, the intensity shows local maxima connecting the Bragg peaks, but this disappears for the spherical crystal. The plots using a logarithmic scale (left) clearly show the intensity distribution, but the linear scale (right) gives a more realistic idea of the residual intensity compared with the main peaks. The insets are an enlarged view of a single Bragg reflection. |
