A simple Bragg-spacing comparator is described which achieves a routine precision of 3 parts in 108 in lattice-spacing measurements. One conventional X-ray source and three detectors are required and measurements take only 10 min. The instrument is used to survey the lattice-parameter variations in silicon crystals manufactured by many different suppliers since 1965.
