The taxi coasted over towers of eerie beauty, a fey castle spiring up from the crystal plane.
In short, the work function anisotropy of the crystal planes is mapped onto the screen as intensity variations.
In a reverse effect, if charges are placed across the crystal plane, quartz crystals will bend.
However, with a single crystal absorber and polarized x-rays the absorption features should be larger for specific crystal planes.
The vacancies will start moving in the direction of crystal planes perpendicular to the maximal stress.
The linear rate constant depends on the orientation of the crystal (usually indicated by the Miller indices of the crystal plane facing the surface).
Energy minimization arguments are used to show that certain crystal planes are preferred over others, giving the crystal its shape.
He was wrong; a crystal plane barred him the tower.
Bragg diffraction is a consequence of interference between waves reflecting from different crystal planes.
In the field of plasticity, crystalline solids such as metals deform plastically primarily along crystal planes.
