Reflecting on mirrors
Although sometimes drawn as a vector, X-rays are plane waves.

Consider: scattering by a plane
The lines represent the crests of waves. Phase = 0.

Plane wave impacts the plane at different points on the plane at different phases.

Scatter from a point initiates a spherical wave
![Page 6: Protein Structure Determination Lecture 4 -- Bragg’s Law and the Fourier Transform](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062519/5697bfd01a28abf838caad26/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Waves scatter from points in all directions, creating interfering sphere waves.
The phase of the sphere wave equals the phase of the incident wave at that point.
![Page 7: Protein Structure Determination Lecture 4 -- Bragg’s Law and the Fourier Transform](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062519/5697bfd01a28abf838caad26/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
The combined sphere wavesinterfere destructively in all directions but
one, the reflection angle.

Plane scatter geometry

...if, and only if, the angle of incidence equals the angle of scatter. Everywhere else, interference is destructive.
All points on a plane scatter with the same path length...

Bragg planes
Parallel planes that have a integer number of wavelengths difference in path length.
Two unit vectors and a wavelength define a set of Bragg planes.
![Page 12: Protein Structure Determination Lecture 4 -- Bragg’s Law and the Fourier Transform](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062519/5697bfd01a28abf838caad26/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Bragg’s law
d
n=2d sin
Planes separated by d scatter in phase.
If is larger, d is smaller.
d=/2sin
path length for this plane is shorter by
Sir Lawrence Bragg, winner of 1914 Nobel Prize in Physics
...than for this plane.

Path length differences
d
path difference=2d sin
Therefore, n=2dsin
if waves add, then path difference = n

Phase for points not on Bragg planes
d
Path difference = 2(x*d) sin
Phase difference = 2 2(x*d) sinradians
x*d
therefore, phase difference = 2 xradians
but, d=/2sin

Scattering from the Origin has phase 0
There is only one origin in the crystal (usually this is defined by crystal symmetry)

The scattering vector S
We can simplify the equation for phase by noticing that
(r1•s - r1•s0)/r1•(s - s0)/
So we define the “scattering vector” S
S = (s - s0)/
Note the reciprocal Å units. These are the units of
reciprocal space!
Substituting S into expressions for phase:
= 2 S•r2
= 2 S•r1

Bragg Planesare numbered according to how they intersect the crystal axes.Starting from the Origin and moving to the first Bragg plane, if it intersects the a axis at 1/h, the b axis at 1/k and the c axis at 1/l, then the Bragg planes are called the (h k l) reflection plane. Each set of Bragg planes defines a single diffracted spot, called a “reflection”. Reflections are also numbered using (h k l).
NOTE: h k and l must be integers! (proof later)
![Page 25: Protein Structure Determination Lecture 4 -- Bragg’s Law and the Fourier Transform](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062519/5697bfd01a28abf838caad26/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)

Proof: The only Bragg planes that diffract X-rays are those that match crystal planes
In other words, if we have seen a reflection on the film, that reflection corresponds to a set of crystal planes. Since all crystal planes pass through the unit cell origins, and since the phase of the Origin can be set to zero, all (observable) Bragg planes of phase zero pass through the Origins
![Page 27: Protein Structure Determination Lecture 4 -- Bragg’s Law and the Fourier Transform](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062519/5697bfd01a28abf838caad26/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
1. Bragg planes are either aligned with the Unit Cell Origins,or they are not.
If the Bragg planes don’t all go through the Origins, then phase of every Origin is different, depending on the distance to the Bragg plane.
If the Bragg planes all pass through the Origins, the phase of every Origin is zero.
Proof: All Bragg planes of phase zero pass through the Origins
aligned
not aligned
phase at origin=0°
phase at origin=180°
![Page 28: Protein Structure Determination Lecture 4 -- Bragg’s Law and the Fourier Transform](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062519/5697bfd01a28abf838caad26/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
2. All planes that pass through the Origins have the same number of electrons
The angle and intercept with the Unit Cell determine with atoms are on the plane.
Proof: All Bragg planes of phase zero pass through the Origins
3. All planes that pass through the Origins contribute the same amplitude.
...because amplitude is proportional to number of electrons, and (statement 2).
![Page 29: Protein Structure Determination Lecture 4 -- Bragg’s Law and the Fourier Transform](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062519/5697bfd01a28abf838caad26/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
4. Total amplitude is the sum of the amplitudes of the planes if the planes have the same phase.
Amplitude contributed by origin planes is 10K times the amplitude of one such plane, if there are 10K unit cells.
Proof: All Bragg planes of phase zero pass through the Origins
5. Total amplitude is approximately zero if the planes have different phases.
Phase shifts by a constant for each unit cell. Vectors sum in a circle. Summed over 10K unit cells, vector length is small.

Conclusion: Bragg planes that pass through all of the Origins diffract X-rays. Bragg planes that do not pass through all of the origins do not diffract X-rays.
Proof: All Bragg planes of phase zero pass through the Origins
6. Any point in the Unit Cell can be the Origin.
7. All equivalent positions by lattice symmetry have the same phase.
Because (statement 6), statements 1-5 apply to any point in the Unit cell.
8. If the Bragg planes do not pass through all Origins, the diffraction amplitude is zero.
Because the total diffraction amplitude is the wave sum over all points in the Unit Cell.

Calculating the structure factors
• Draw a plane that intersects the unit cell axes at 1/h, 1/k, and 1/l (careful to consider the sign of h,k,l)
• Measure the phase of each atom as its distance from the nearest Bragg plane, divided by d and multiplied by 360°.
• Draw the scattering factor for that atom, and sum the scattering factors to get the structure factor.
