PREFACE This book is intended to serve both as a text and as a
reference book. The portions intended for classroom use have been
written for courses in crystallography, particularly the courses
offered to students of metallurgy. It is primarily intended for
graduate courses, but a number of chapters are at a level
appropriate for advanced undergraduate courses in applied x-rays,
crystallography, and physical metallurgy Chaps. I to IV, IX to XI,
XIII. In an effort to make the book more readable, certain advanced
topics on x-ray diffraction and various tables of data have been
placed in appendixes, and laboratory manipulations that would not
interest the general reader have been printed in smaller type. The
first four chapters of this book explain the fundamentals of
crystal lattices and projections, and the general principles of the
diffrac tion of x-rays from Crystals. Chapters V to VII cover the
technique of x-ray diffraction, presenting the operating details of
the methods that are in common use. Several chapters are included
on the applica tions of x-ray diffraction in the field of physical
metallurgy, covering techniques fordetermining constitution
diagrams, identifying unknown materials, determining crystal
structures, determining the orientation of single crystals,
detecting and analyzing preferred orientations, and measuring
stresses. One chapter is devoted to electron diffraction, its
metallurgical uses, and the precautions to be observed in
interpreting electron diffrac tion data. The electron microscope
receives only a brief mention because at the time the manuscript
was written the metallographic technique for this instrument was
still being rapidly developed and, except for particle-size
determinations, the instrument had not yet achieved the status of a
widely accepted tool in metallographic or crystallographic
research. The last half of the book is devoted to the results of
research and contains extensive reviews of fields that are of
current interest. In assembling these summaries, an effort has been
made to include an ade quate number of references to the
literature, to cover thoroughly the subjects that have not been
extensively reviewed in readily available publications, and to
maintain a critical but unbiased attitude toward the data and
conclusions that are reviewed. The subjects treated include the
following principles governing the crystal structure of metals and
vi PREPACK alloys supcrlattices and their effect on properties
imperfections in crystals the structure of liquid metals the
processes of slip, twinning, and fracture and modern theories of
these processes, including the cur rent dislocation theory the
effects of cold work and annealing on the structure of metals,
including the effects on diffraction patterns of static and fatigue
stressing, rolling, grinding, and polishing theresults of x-ray
studies of internal stresses preferred orientations resulting from
cold work, hot work, recrystallization, freezing,
electrodeposition, evapora tion, and sputtering directionality in
commercial products and in single crystals and its relation to
crystal orientation. The author is indebted to many colleagues and
graduate students who have assisted directly and indirectly in the
preparation of this book. He particularly wishes to thank Dr. R.
