A new access to extinction corrections — •Anne K. Hüsecken and Ullrich Pietsch — Naturwissenschaftlich Technische Fakultät, Fachbereich Physik, Universität Siegen, D-57068 Siegen, Germany

In x-ray crystal structure analysis a problem, called extinction, occurs due to multiple scattering in crystals. Over the years several extinction correction theorems have been formulated, but the used parameters have never been proved to be valid for a certain crystal under investigation. Perfect crystals scatter according to the dynamical theory (I~|F|) and imperfect crystals or ideal mosaic crystals due to the kinematical theory (I~|F|*). In most cases, the measured intensities of real crystals are in between both cases and an extinction correction is needed to fulfil the kinematic approach. Present theories dealing with extinction corrections are based on the approach of a mosaic crystal and describe x-ray scattering in terms of the kinematic approach using certain "correction terms" to implement the structure of a real crystal. The mosaic blocs within a real crystal are misorientated to each other and are affected by lattice strain. In addition both 3D shape and size of the blocs are not known. All these parameters can be determined by high-resolution x-ray diffraction techniques performing ω- and ω-2θ-scans through certain reciprocal lattice points. The measured parameters can be used to determine extinction. Our aim for crystallography is to perform these scans only for a few reflections, make a short analysis, to get the size, misorientation and lattice strain of the mosaic blocs. With these parameters it should then be possible to decide which one is the best extinction correction to use.
