Electron Diffraction Analysis of Mixtures of Hexagonal and Cubic Cadmium Sulphide

Abstract

ESTIMATION of hexagonal cadmium sulphide in mixtures with the cubic form can be obtained by reflexion electron diffraction of the polycrystalline material. Photographic plates are microphotometered and the integrated intensities are measured for several lines. Intensity ratios for the sample are compared with similar data for calibration standards and the hexagonal content is obtained graphically.
