Cubic crystals in an x-ray polarization-splitting geometry
2020
Hexagonal and cubic crystals contain paired sets of internal planes that reflect the linearly polarized components of certain x rays into two separate, perpendicular directions. For the cubic crystals, two distinct crystal orientations provide the same polarization-splitting geometry. One of the orientations may have advantages for plasma spectroscopy by suppressing unwanted reflections. This paper demonstrates the two orientations with a germanium crystal and K characteristic lines from copper and zirconium.Hexagonal and cubic crystals contain paired sets of internal planes that reflect the linearly polarized components of certain x rays into two separate, perpendicular directions.
