Abstract

Diffraction topography is the formation of images of crystals using Bragg-diffracted rays. Topics covered in this chapter include: the principles of diffraction topography; single-crystal techniques, including reflection and transmission topographs; double-crystal topography; the use of synchrotron radiation; moiré topography; and real-time viewing of topograph images. This chapter is also available as HTML from the International Tables Online site hosted by the IUCr.
