Figure 6
Ray diagram of a Debye–Scherrer XRD experiment showing the effect of specimen displacement on 2θ value. The specimen capillary is at S, the idealized specimen position (typically the goniometer center) is at O, which is a length R from the detector, length d becomes more positive as S moves towards the detector, and X-rays are traveling from right to left. X-rays are diffracted through an angle 2θ at S, hitting the detector at D, which are measured at an angle 2θ − δ. |
