Résumé

Dynamical Theory of X-ray Diffraction is the first comprehensive book on the dynamical diffraction of X-rays since the development of synchrotron radiation. The first part provides an introduction to the subject, followed by a detailed treatment of perfect and slightly and highly deformed crystals. The last part gives three applications of the theory: X-ray optics, locations of atoms at surfaces, and X-ray diffraction topography. The book is abundantly illustrated. It will be a useful reference work for graduate students, lecturers, and researchers.

Unique coverage that is comprehensive and up-to-date
Clear, pedagogical derivations
Includes historical developments of the theory
Topical applications: x-ray optics, locations at surfaces, diffraction topography

Readership: Graduate students, lecturers, and researchers in crystallography, physics, chemistry, and materials science.
