Several Journal articles have described the Fourier method of x-ray crystallography, and the demonstration of using a small diffracting pattern to diffract the light from a low intensity laser beam is well known. It is much less well known that the diffracted light can be deconvoluted and projected to give an image of the diffracting pattern. This article describes illustrating such a Fourier transform.
Our Secondary School editors work hard to distill all the JCE materials to produce a fraction of particular interest to high school teachers. We call it CLIC.
In recent years we have worked hard to better match our advertisers with our readers. When shopping for chemistry education materials, visit our advertisers' WWW sites first.
Take JCE along on your outreach missions. Copies of the Journal, guest access to JCE Online, our publications catalog, and more are available for your participants.
