Abstract

A review of the technique of White Beam Synchrotron X-ray Topography is presented along with some examples of its applications in materials science. Among the topics covered are: the characterization of growth defects in KTiOPO4, ZnTe, and SiC single crystals; studies of phase transitions in perovskite-like crystals; and studies of rapid thermal processing damage in semiconductors. Methodologies for analyzing dislocations, twins (rotational, mirror and inversion twins), precipitates and other crystallographic defects, will be reviewed.
