The Theory of Crystal Structure Analysis PDF
by A. Kitaigorodskii
Description
Structure analysis is based on the phenomena of the diffraction of radia- tion by materials.
In the first ten to twenty years after Laue's discovery, a very complete theory was developed for the diffraction of x-rays and, later, of electrons.
This theory led to equations by means of which it was possible to compute the intensity pattern for a given structure.
The theory of structure analysis came to mean that of the diffraction of radiation.
In 1935, Patterson pointed out a way leading to the solution of the inverse problem: the finding of the structure from a given intensity distribution pattern.
At first the conservatism of researchers, and then the war, hampered the de- velopment and broad application of the ideas set forth in this work.
It was only during the last ten years that all the rich possibilities of the Patterson method - the method of the analysis of the convolution of the electron density - were brought to light and applied in practice.
