Laue camera
A Laue camera is a scientific instrument used to study the atomic structure of crystals. When X-rays pass through a crystal, they are scattered in specific directions based on the arrangement of atoms. The Laue camera captures these X-ray patterns on photographic film, revealing a unique "fingerprint" for each crystal. By analyzing the pattern, scientists can determine the crystal’s internal structure and symmetry, helping in fields like materials science and biology. It’s a precise method for understanding how atoms are organized within a solid object.
