X-Ray Diffraction
In the last 25 years various manifestations of Scanning Probe Microscopy, such as AFM,
STM, and SNOM, have enabled chemists to “feel” individual molecules and atoms. SPM
techniques are not quite good enough yet to study how electrons are distributed in bonds.
Because light is scattered predominantly by the charged particles with the smallest mass, the
electron distribution in molecules can be determined by x-ray diffraction. The roles of
molecular pattern and crystal lattice repetition can be illustrated by shining a visible laser
through diffraction masks to generate scattering patterns reminiscent of those encountered in
X-ray studies of ordered solids.

“But Nature is not to be limited by
our narrow comprehension; future
improvements of glasses may yet further
enlighten our understanding, and ocular
inspection may demonstrate that which as
yet we may think too extravagant either to
feign or suppose.”
