Questiоn 11 An оrthоrhombic crystаl hаs а = 0.25 nm, b = 0.5 nm and c = 0.3 nm. (a) Construct a section of the plane of reciprocal space containing a* and b* (i.e. the a*b* plane). (Use the graph paper). What are the magnitudes of the reciprocal lattice vectors? (3) (b) Suppose the crystal is now illuminated with a beam of electrons with wavevector k = -2a*-b*. The Ewald sphere intersects the reciprocal lattice plane at (020), (400) and (420). On the same graph paper, sketch the cross-section of Ewald sphere on the plane of reciprocal space and label the intersection points. (3) (c) What is the electron wavelength and what is the accelerating voltage of the microscope? (3) (d) Determine the magnitudes of the change in wavevector K for the (420) reflection. (3)
