  1. I. Brief introduction Several questions to ask in this course: • 1. What is the objective of the course - “introduction to • crystal structure and diffraction theory”? • (a) Crystal structure • (b) Diffraction theory and techniques • 2. What is the atomic arrangement in a crystal? • 3. What is the crystal symmetry? • 4. What is the difference among reflection, refraction, • and diffraction?

  2. 5. How many kinds of diffraction techniques useful for • materials characterization? • XRD (X-ray diffraction; bulk) • --- used for bulk structure determination (in air) • LEED(low energy electron diffraction; surface) • --- used for surface structure determination in UHV • (ultra-high vacuum) • RHEED (Reflection high energy electron diffraction) • --- equipped in MBE (molecular beam epitaxy, • UHV, surface) • TEM(Transmission electron microscope; bulk, thin) • --- used for chemical and structure determination

  3. 6. What is the relationship between diffraction and • image formation? • --- the image of the object is contained in each • diffraction spot • --- diffraction focal plane and image plane

  4. 7. What are the diffraction techniques covered in the text? • (a) X-ray diffraction (XRD) • ---- Laue method (orientation determination) Transmission Reflection

  5. ---- Debye-ScherrerMethod (crystal structure • characterization) http://www.stanford.edu/group/glam/xlab/MatSci162_172/LectureNotes/06_Geometry,%20Detectors.pdf

  6. ---- X-ray diffractometer (structure characterization) • ---- X-ray topography (microstructure • characterization) • Each diffraction spot enlarged is actually a • topograph.

  7. (b) Low energy electron diffraction (LEED) • ---- surface structure determination LEED pattern of Si(100)2x1

  8. (c) Reflection high energy electron diffraction • (RHEED) • --- used in MBE (molecular beam epitaxy) Streaky RHEED pattern of an epitaxial layer

  9. (d) Transmission electron microscope (TEM) • --- structure, morphology, and chemical • determination (usually UHV, newest: liquid) http://www.nscric.nthu.edu.tw/
