Crystallographic Uniformity Of Lineage Structure In Copper Single Crystals

THE study of mosaic structure of crystals1 has been confined until recently to the field of theoretical physics Crystallographers, in general, have neglected the subject, although X-ray crystallographers constantly make use of formulas for intensities of X-ray reflection as modified by mosaic structure Work on mosaic structure has centered chiefly on the task of proving or disproving the secondary-structure theory of Zwicky,2 and very little attention has been paid to the visible imperfections of crystals A Goetz has been responsible for most of the supposed experimental confirmations of Zwicky's theory 3 On the other hand, Smekal,4 and Orowan,5 among others, maintain that these is neither theoretical nor experimental evidence to substantiate Zwicky's secondary structure
