Method and apparatus of automatically selecting Bragg reflections and method and system of automatically determining crystallographic orientation

摘要

A novel method and novel apparatus that are capable of selecting, with a computer, reference Bragg reflections pcl and pc2, which form a basis for determination of the crystallographic orientation of a crystal sample by the two-reflection method, automatically and easily and accurately, wherein; firstly, x-ray intensities and diffraction conditions of all Bragg reflections which are measurable are calculated using the crystallographic information, secondly, a weight-point according to both the x-ray intensity and the angle between the sample normal and the scattering vector is obtained for each of the Bragg reflections, thirdly, two Bragg reflections having the two largest weight-points are selected as the reference Bragg reflections pc1 and pc2, respectively.
