The diffracted rays on emerging from the object travel in various directions depending on the angle at which they are diffracted. This pattern of diffraction is recorded by means of a photographic plate placed a short distance (5 to 10 mm) beyond the object. In the case of crystalline materials, the lattice struc- ture of the component crystals tends to concentrate the diffracted X rays in certain definite directions to produce a characteristic diffraction pat- 256 / CHAPTER 11.
