Question: diffractometer will emit different wavelengths of x - rays, as shown in the table below. Imagine we bought a used x - ray diffractometer with
diffractometer will emit different wavelengths
of rays, as shown in the table below. Imagine we bought a used xray diffractometer with no manual
so we have no idea which type of anode is in our system and therefor don't know what xray wavelength
the system uses for analysis. To try and figure out the anode material our system uses, we analyze a
polycrystalline sample of pure iron with a bcc structure for this problem, let's say the lattice constant
Angstrom although this is not the real value for ferrite in our diffractometer and we measure the
diffraction pattern shown below.
Analyze the diffraction pattern and use the list of different anode materials and their corresponding x
ray wavelengths to determine the material used for the anode generating xrays
in this diffractometer.
