Hi, this is my first post.
I have a problem to solve:

"Given the plane (1 1 1) of 3 lattice sc, bcc and fcc, says in which case there is diffraction"

I hope that someone helps me...
Thanks for helpers

You have to calculate the structure factor of the (111) for the 3 structures. The one(s) with non-zero structure factors will produce diffraction a line.
 
A plane will always give rise to diffraction, irrespective of the type of lattice.

Yes, it's right. I found the solution! Thank you!
 
From the BCS theory of superconductivity is well known that the superfluid density smoothly decreases with increasing temperature. Annihilated superfluid carriers become normal and lose their momenta on lattice atoms. So if we induce a persistent supercurrent in a ring below Tc and after that slowly increase the temperature, we must observe a decrease in the actual supercurrent, because the density of electron pairs and total supercurrent momentum decrease. However, this supercurrent...
Hi. I have got question as in title. How can idea of instantaneous dipole moment for atoms like, for example hydrogen be consistent with idea of orbitals? At my level of knowledge London dispersion forces are derived taking into account Bohr model of atom. But we know today that this model is not correct. If it would be correct I understand that at each time electron is at some point at radius at some angle and there is dipole moment at this time from nucleus to electron at orbit. But how...
