Using thin-film gold bicrystals with the boundary plane parallel to the foil surface, it has been shown(l,2) that networks of grain boundary dislocations can act as diffraction gratings and give rise to subsidiary reflections close to the matrix reflections in electron diffraction patterns. Recently several groups of workers(3-5) have shown that inclined boundaries in polycrystalline specimens also produce extra reflections which may be due to the periodic nature of the boundaries. In general grain boundaries in polycrystalline specimens will be steeply inclined to the foil surface and additional reflections due to wave matching at the boundary(6) will also be present. The diffraction technique has the potential for providing detailed information on the structure of inclined boundaries (see, for example (5)), especially for the case where the image contains no useful information. In order to provide a firm basis for this technique, the geometry of the diffraction effects expected from inclined boundaries and the influence of these effects on the appearance of images will be examined.
