2.3.3.3.193. NXsingle_crystal

Status:

base class, extends NXobject

Description:

Description of a single crystal material or a single crystalline phase in a mate ...

Description of a single crystal material or a single crystalline phase in a material.

There is the option of using Busing-Levy convention (as orginally designed in NXsample) or using a more detailed description with NXrotation_set.

Structure:

sample_orientation: (optional) NX_FLOAT (Rank: 1, Dimensions: [3]) {units=NX_ANGLE}

orientation_matrix: (optional) NX_FLOAT (Rank: 2, Dimensions: [3, 3])

Orientation matrix of single crystal sample using Busing-Levy convention: ...

Orientation matrix of single crystal sample using Busing-Levy convention: W. R. Busing and H. A. Levy (1967). Acta Cryst. 22, 457-464

ub_matrix: (optional) NX_FLOAT (Rank: 2, Dimensions: [3, 3])

UB matrix of single crystal sample using Busing-Levy convention: ...

UB matrix of single crystal sample using Busing-Levy convention: W. R. Busing and H. A. Levy (1967). Acta Cryst. 22, 457-464. This is the multiplication of the orientation_matrix, given above, with the \(B\) matrix which can be derived from the lattice constants.

rotation_set: (optional) NXrotation_set

Detailed description of single crystal orientation and misorientation.

UNIT_CELL: (optional) NXunit_cell

Unit cell of the single crystal.
