Multiplicity factor
The multiplicity factor refers to the relative proportion of the planes contribute to diffraction.
i.e., the number of different planes having the same spacing.
More the number of planes under same family greater is the intensity.
• For example; {100} family in cubic crystal:
m(100)= 4
Absorption factor
Absorption factor depends on loss of intensity of X-ray beam with in the crystal. The net
result is that the diffracted beam is of lower intensity than one would expect for a
specimen of no absorption.
If the thickness of the plate-like plane in which atoms are vibrate is “2u”,
where “u” is the average amplitude of an atom from its mean position.
But broadening of the diffraction lines does not cause by thermal vibration
; they remain sharp right up to the melting point.
Instrumental parts of Diffractometer
➢Incident-beam optics: Control and monitor X-ray beam before it hits the sample
➢The goniometer: Platform that rotates the sample, optics, detector, and/or tube

Instrumental parts of X-ray Diffractometer
An atom as consisting of a central nucleus surrounded by electrons lying in various shells. Electrons
bombard the target has sufficient kinetic energy, it can knock an electron out of the K shell, leaving the atom
in an excited, high-energy state. Then one of the outer electrons immediately falls into the vacancy in the K
shell and the atom is once again return in its normal energy state. The energy emitted is in the form of
radiation of a definite wavelength is called X-ray.
The K-shell vacancy may be filled by an electron from any one of the outer shells
such as L or M, thus giving rise to a series of K lines; Kα and Kβ lines. Therefore
one atom of the target may be emitting Kα radiation while its neighbor is emitting
Kβ. And X-ray source may have mix of both.
❖ X-rays are produced whenever high-speed electrons collide with a metal target.
❖ Essential parts of X-ray tube are: (i) source of electrons, (ii) high accelerating voltage, and (iii) metal
target .
❖ Electron are produced by two ways (i) Filament tubes, in which the source of electrons is a hot filament,
or (ii) gas tubes, in which electrons are produced by the ionization of a small quantity of gas in the tube.
❖ X-ray tube contains an anode (the metal target) and a cathode maintained at a high negative potential
in the order of 30,000 to 50,000 volts for diffraction work. High voltage accelerate the produced
electron and heat the target anode
❖ Since most of the kinetic energy of the electrons is converted into heat in the metal target, therefore
X-ray tube must have water-cooling system to prevent its melting.

Electrons from the filament strike the target anode (Cu), producing characteristic radiation
via the photoelectric effect.
