Abstract: Provided is a method of bright-field imaging using x-rays in a sample to reveal lattice defects as well as structural inhomogeneities, the method comprising: (a) disposing a sample on a holder in the Laue transmission geometry and setting the sample to a single reflection in the Bragg diffraction; (b) projecting a beam of monochromatic x-rays on the sample; and (c) obtaining transmitted radiographic images and reversed diffracted images of the projected beam of monochromatic x-rays by the sample, respectively.

Abstract: Provided is a method of determining a three-dimensional distribution of structural defects in a single crystal material, the method comprising: (a) disposing a single crystal sample on a holder, the sample being set to a symmetric reflection in the Bragg Geometry; (b) projecting a beam of incident x-rays on a predetermined crystal plane in the sample and reflecting the x-rays while the sample is azimuthally rotating with respect to an normal axis, the normal axis being perpendicular to the predetermined crystal plane; (c) obtaining geometrical measured values of a two-dimensional configuration of defects on the detector plane of a CCD detector; and (d) determining the three-dimensional distribution of the defects in the sample by formulating a geometrical relation between a three-dimensional configuration of defects on the sample and the geometrical measured values of the two-dimensional configuration of defects on the detector plane.
