Abstract: | This paper gives an overview of the effect of electric field on the diffracted intensity and contrast on the X-ray topographs recorded from crystals of non-linear and electro-optic materials, ionic conductors, semiconductors, insulators and ferro-electric materials. Application of a dc electric field gives rise to a change in the diffracted intensity by several orders of magnitude and contrast on the topographs. The effect is illustrated with examples of -LiIO3, KTiOPO4, LiN2H5SO4, KNbO3, LiNH4SO4, quartz, silicon etc. and the mechanism for it is discussed. |
