The Polycrystal Component

Polycrystal made from single crystal-like voxels

Identification

Description

The component creates a threedimensional grid of cubic instances of the Single_crystal-component,through
which the rays are propagated. The component relies on a list of possible orientations and stretches of the
initial unit cell and a list correlating each voxel of the polycrystal to an entry in the list of rotations
and stretches.

Example: Polycrystal( MapFile= "polycrystal_1layer_2orts.map", OrientationsFile= "stretch_2orts.orts",
ReflectionsDatafile= "GeReduced.lau", xwidth= 200e-6, yheight= 200e-6, zdepth = 50e-6,
DeltadOverd = 0.001, Mosaicity = 1, SigmaAbsorbtion  = 0.0, SigmaIncoherent = 0.0,
MaxNumberOfReflections    = 1, ProbabilityOfTransmission = 0.5,
ax = 5.6579, ay = 0.0000, az = 0.0000, bx = 0.0000, by = 5.6579, bz = 0.0000, cx = 0.0000, cy = 0.0000, cz = 5.6579 )

MaxNumberOfReflections1Highest number of allowed scattering events in the entire crystal - to prevent computationally expensive high-order multiple scattering. If this parameter is set to 0, all possible orders of scattering are considered.1
Reciprocal0/1If this parameter is set to 0, then the lattice vectors should be given in real space. Anything else implies that the vectors are given in reciprocal space.0
verbose0/1If nonzero - output more info to the console.0
