Cathode ray tube is used for producing images‚ when an electron beam hits the surface made out of a phosphorescent‚ and the cathode ray tube is basically a vacuum tube. An example of a cathode ray tube is a computer desktop and the picture tubes in television are similar to the cathode ray tube in television. There are numerous components of cathode ray tube‚ which are the Electron gun‚ Anodes‚ Coil‚ Phosphor-coated screen‚ electronic beam and the spot through which the beam passes through. In a

Principles of X-ray Diffraction Diffraction effects are observed when electromagnetic radiation impinges on periodic structures with geometrical variations on the length scale of the wavelength of the radiation. The interatomic distances in crystals and molecules amount to 0.15–0.4 nm which correspond in the electromagnetic spectrum with the wavelength of x-rays having photon energies between 3 and 8 keV. Accordingly‚ phenomena like constructive and destructive interference should become observable
