单词 X-ray crystallography
释义
X-ray crystallography

Physics
  • The use of X-ray diffraction to determine the structure of crystals or molecules. The technique involves directing a beam of X-rays at a crystalline sample and recording the diffracted X-rays on a photographic plate. The diffraction pattern consists of a pattern of spots on the plate, and the crystal structure can be worked out from the positions and intensities of the diffraction spots. X-rays are diffracted by the electrons in the atoms and if crystals of a compound are used, the electron density distribution in the ions or molecules can be determined. See also neutron diffraction.

Chemical Engineering
  • The use of diffraction of X-rays for the determination of the structure of crystals or molecules. It uses a beam of X-rays directed onto the target sample that is diffracted and captured on a photographic plate as a pattern of light and dark spots of differing intensities. These are analysed, and from which, the structure of the crystal or molecule is deduced. Since the wavelength of X-rays is comparable to the distance between the atoms in most crystals, the repeating structure acts like a diffraction grating for X-rays.


Electronics and Electrical Engineering
  • See X-rays.


Biology
  • The use of X-ray diffraction to determine the structure of crystals or molecules, such as nucleic acids. The technique involves directing a beam of X-rays at a crystalline sample and recording the diffracted X-rays on a photographic plate or other detector, such as a transducer that can create a digital image. The diffraction pattern consists of a pattern of spots on the image, and the crystal structure can be worked out from the positions and intensities of the diffraction spots. X-rays are diffracted by the electrons in the molecules and if molecular crystals of a compound are used, the electron density distribution in the molecule can be determined.
