Hi,
I have once heard and recently read that "the diffraction event results
from the fact that both the X-rays wavelength and the atomic distances
are of the same magnitude". Although such a relation seems appealing I
am unsure if this is not a mere coincidence. Could someone clarify or
lead me to a relevant reading.
Cheers,
Carlos
