Define a unit cell. How do you find the volume of the unit cell? 4. We can draw optic axis through any point in the crystal lattice justify this statement. 5. Draw ( ) and ( ) plane for a simple cubic crystal.

II.

Answer any two from the following: 2 x 5 = 10 marks

6. Differentiate between positive and negative crystals (5 differences). 7. Define resolving power of a grating. Derive the equation for resolving power of a grating. 8. Give the ratio for for a simple cubic crystal. Also calculate the spacing of lattice planes ( ) and ( ) for a simple cubic lattice of the lattice parameter .

9. Explain the theory of transmission grating. Derive equations for principal maxima and minima (1st and 2nd order); also explain the formation of secondary maxima and minima. Hence find the number of occurrences of secondary maxima and secondary minima between any two principal maxima. OR When a plane polarised E-ray strikes a doubly refracting crystal cut parallel to the optic axis O-ray and E-ray are produced. Derive the equations for O-ray and Eray. Arrive at the general equation for the emerging light. Derive the conditions for circularly polarised, plane polarised and elliptically polarised light. Draw the diagrams of the special cases for different values of .
