Fantastic! Thank you jtbell for your help and for pointing me in the right direction for further research. As a student I definitely appreciate it!Minty
Yep! I guess ultimately, if you can explain this conceptually, why is there a relationship between a particle's wavelength and the atomic-place spacing in the crystal? Is this where electron diffraction comes into play?
Ah, so maybe he was referring to the spacing between lattices represented by "d" in this equation?
Which means there can be a relationship between a particle's wavelength and the spacing, correct?
Please take my sincere apologies, as this is all new material to me...I would just like to make...
Thanks for the quick reply. Yes, I believe that is what he was referring to in this case, considering we just talked about said equation last class! He gave us work sheets that said "... on the order of the separations between the atoms in a solid". Hope this cleared up any confusion I may have...
Hello,
My teacher was talking about Bragg's law and mentioned how there was a relationship between the wavelength of light and a solid's order of separations.
I'm still confused about this, actually. Can someone please help me clear up what he said? What is the order of separations in a solid...
