APPLICATION
n𝝺 = 2dsin𝛉
Where,
Bragg’s law can easily be derived by considering the condition necessary to make the
phases of the beams coincide when the incident angle equals reflecting angle. The
rays of the incident beam are always in phase and parallel up to the point at which the
top beam strikes the top layer at atom z. The second beam continues to the next layer
where it is scattered by atom B. The second beam must travel the extra distance AB +
BC if the two beams are continue travelling adjacent and parallel. This extra distance
must be an integral (n) multiple of the wavelength (𝝺) for the phases of the two beam
to be same.
