If diffraction or interference phenomena were to be sought it was therefore necessary, in accordance with the basic principles of wave theory,… — Max von Laue Copy Share Image
There is no doubt that I, also, had long been aware of the problem, i.e. producing X-ray interferences, before the inherent difficulties had finally… — Max von Laue Copy Share Image
For in 1900 all electromagnetic radiation of longer wavelengths was already known at least to the extent that one could not seek in it… — Max von Laue Copy Share Image
For as long as one has no further point of reference, apart from the position of the maximum, the wavelength thus remains uncertain by… — Max von Laue Copy Share Image
If diffraction or interference phenomena were to be sought it was therefore necessary, in accordance with the basic principles of wave theory, to select… — Max von Laue Copy Share Image
With crystals we are in a situation similar to an attempt to investigate an optical grating merely from the spectra it produces... But a… — Max von Laue Copy Share Image
For both reasons, owing to the thermal motion and to the working together of various wavelengths, factors arise which, in a similar manner to… — Max von Laue Copy Share Image
Notwithstanding these major arguments the wave theory initially did not meet with complete acceptance. — Max von Laue Copy Share Image
