Electron microscopy and Interatomic distances of miller planes

I am studying Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), and have been seeing in articles TEM images of different materials typically come accompanied by these diffraction patterns, caused by the ...

What are the best resources for Crystallography?

I am undertaking a module in nanosurfaces and I was unaware that I would require some knowledge in Crystallography. The information that I must know regarding this area are Miller indices, Symmetries, ...

Quantify/visualize atomic clusters in multi-component crystalline materials

Let's say we have a material $AB$. Is it possible to detect atomic clusters of A atoms experimentally? The size of clusters in question: 2 atoms (nearest neighbour (nn) pairs), 3 atoms (nn triangles), ...

Relation between $(hkl)$ indices and the integers $m_i$ in $\vec{G}=\sum_i m_i\vec{b}_i$?

Can somebody explain how to establish the connection between Miller indices $(h,k,l)$ of a crystal plane and the triplet of integers $(m_1,m_2,m_3)$ that appear in the linear combination $$\vec{G}=...

Using Miller indices to determine interference from a particular plane in a crystal lattice

In terms of x-ray diffraction from crystals. I was wondering how you can use the miller indices to determine whether there will be constructive or destructive interference from a particular plane in ...

Process of x-ray crystallography

This is a pretty basic question but I would just like some confirmation of what I suspect is true. As I understand it, the basic idea behind x-ray crystallography is that we take our crystal and hit ...
