ABSTRACT:
A specific small area of a crystal sample is scanned by a laser beam which rotates about an axis substantially perpendicular to the sample surface such that the intersection of the beam with a plane above and parallel to the surface describes a true spiral or a stepwise spiral pattern. The laser beam is reflected different amounts for different beam positions to produce a reflectance pattern indicative of crystallographic orientation.
