Determination of Crystal Lattice Constants by Electron Diffraction

Abstract

THE accuracy of the determination of crystal lattice constants by electron diffraction has hitherto been limited by various sources of error, chief of which is that due to the lack of precision attendant upon the measurement of high voltages. We have recently succeeded in eliminating this and other sources of error in the following manner:
