RESUMO
X-ray topography exerting the super-Borrmann effect has been performed using synchrotron radiation to display dislocation images with a high-speed and high-resolution CMOS camera. Forward-transmitted X-rays are positively employed instead of reflected X-rays to reveal dislocations in relatively thick crystals by simultaneously exciting a pair of adjacent {111} planes owing to the super-Borrmann effect. Before the experiment, minimum values of the attenuation coefficients AminP for σ and π polarizations of the incident X-rays in the three-beam case are calculated. Results demonstrate that AminP for both polarizations are almost 20 times larger than those in the two-beam (usual Borrmann effect) case. The transmitted X-rays can be used to confirm the efficacy of taking topographs under the super-Borrmann conditions, as well as under multiple-diffraction conditions. Furthermore, super-Borrmann topographs can be considered for relatively thick crystals, where a conventional Lang X-ray topography technique is difficult to apply.
