reciprocal lattice

   Also found in: Wikipedia 0.02 sec.
reciprocal lattice [ri′sip·rə·kəl ′lad·əs]
(crystallography)
A lattice array of points formed by drawing perpendiculars to each plane(hkl)in a crystal lattice through a common point as origin; the distance from each point to the origin is inversely proportional to spacing of the specific lattice planes; the axes of the reciprocal lattice are perpendicular to those of the crystal lattice.

The energies of the extrema of the conduction and valence sub-bands are referenced to the bottom of the conduction sub-band at the [GAMMA] symmetry point in the Brillouin zone of the reciprocal lattice space.
Palladium-filtered Ag radiation was used to minimize absorption effe cts (largely due to the diamond anvils) and also to decrease the size of the reciprocal lattice permitting more data to be obtained.
With this technique, all reflections of any given layer of the reciprocal lattice develop on a single plane, which is made to coincide with the plane formed by the linear detector and the incident beam, as shown schematically in Fig.
