Laue diffraction occurs when a polychromatic X-ray beam impinges on a crystal. This unique reflection geometry was first discovered by German physicist Max von Laue who shone an X-ray beam through a copper sulfate crystal in order to record its diffraction properties. This unique diffraction pattern is intrinsic of crystal orientation, which provided the basis…

Synchrotrons are extremely powerful tools used to radially accelerate electrons to high energy states. There are more than 50 light sources in the world (operational, or under construction) that generate high-energy beamlines for experimentation. The European Synchrotron Radiation Facility (ESRF) Grenoble in France, is one such synchrotron that uses extremely bright source energy to generate…
