Abstract

The method of obtaining the x-ray spectrum of a substance by means of an oscillating crystal, originated with the Braggs in 1914. It is this principle that is employed in the operation of this unit. It is sincerely hoped that this x-ray diffraction unit will serve as a basis for later diffraction experiments.
