. (a) shows an initial lattice model from autoindexing, with effective mosaicity m = 0.3°. The apparent presence of a lattice layer with half-integer Miller indices l = 4½ (magenta) would seem to be consistent with c-axis doubling. However, these Bragg spots can also be interpreted as arising from highly mosaic rocking curves from the main lattice layers at l = 4 (yellow) or l = 5 (not shown). The overlap of integer- and half-integer-layer spots upon increasing the mosaicity parameter [m = 1.3° is depicted in (b)] prevents the use of these particular spots as evidence of pseudotranslation. |
