E. Warren George Eastman Laboratory of Physics, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, Massachusetts Received 7 March 1941 Random layer lattice structures are considered which consist of layers arranged parallel and equidistant, but random in translation parallel to the layer, and rotation about the normal. We call a and b the axes in the layer, and c the axis normal to the layer. In this notation there will be crystalline reflections of type (00l), two-dimensional lattice reflections of type (hk), and no general reflections (hkl). Equations are developed for the intensity distribution in a two-dimensional powder reflection, and for the integrated intensity. Equations are also de-developed for the particle size in terms of the peak breadth, and for the displacement of the peak. The powder pattern of a heat treated carbon black is presented as an illustration of two-dimensional lattice reflections. ©1941 The American Physical Society URL: http://link.aps.org/abstract/PR/v59/p693 DOI: 10.1103/PhysRev.59.693 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ View Page Images or PDF (712 kB) [ Previous article | Next article | Issue 9 contents ] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ References (Reference links marked with dot may require a separate subscription.) 1.
