Title: MultiLaue: A Technique to Extract d-spacings from Laue XRD

Abstract

We present that broad spectrum X-ray Diffraction (XRD) is named Laue after Max von Laue, and is the original XRD technique. Today, monochromatic XRD is more common because Bragg's equation allows determination of d-spacings where Laue does not. Laue still remains in use for single crystal systems because it can be used to make very accurate unit cell determinations as well as for strain and orientation mapping. Lastly, a Laue technique which could provide unambiguous determination of lattice spacings, a la Bragg's equation would be a huge leap forward, especially for multiphase samples such as meteorites, interplanetary dust particles and some geological specimens.
