6Kiessig Thickness Calculator Tool
7=================================

9Description
10-----------
11
[5ed76f8]12This tool estimates real space dimensions from the position or spacing of
13features in recipricol space.  In particular a particle of size $d$ will
14give rise to Bragg peaks with spacing $\Delta q$ according to the relation
15
16.. math::
17
18    d = 2\pi / \Delta q
19
20Similarly, the spacing between the peaks in Kiessig fringes in reflectometry
21data arise from layers of thickness $d$.

[a9dc4eb]25Using the tool
26--------------
[ec392464]27
[5ed76f8]28To get a rough thickness or particle size, simply type the fringe or peak
[1e01486]29position (in units of 1/|Ang|\) and click on the *Compute* button.
