  • Diffraction camera for imaging penetrating radiation
    Patent number: 4203034
    Abstract: A diffraction camera type imaging device for x-rays/gamma rays/neutrons employs at least one single crystal bent to conform to the radius of a sphere of radius 2R and ground to fit snugly on a Rowland sphere of radius R will, when rotated about an axis normal to the axis of symmetry of the crystal or translated rectilinearly along said axis of symmetry, focus, by Bragg diffraction, a two-dimensional x-ray/gamma ray/neutron radiating object to a two dimensional image.
