Unless special precautions are taken, the experimental determination of two-beam structure factors to better than 1 % may include contributions from neighbouring n-beam interactions. In any particular experimental configuration, corrections for such contributions are easily carried out using the modified two-beam structure factor formalism developed recently (Juretschke 1984), once the full indexing of the pertinent n-beam interactions is known. The method is illustrated for both weak and strong primary reflections and its applicability in special cases, as well as for less than perfect crystals, is discussed.

Spectroscopic studies of laser-induced plasma from a high-temperature superconducting material, viz., YBa2Cu3O7 (YBCO), have been carried out. Electron temperature and electron density measurements were made from spectral data. The Stark broadening of emission lines was used to determine the electron density, and the ratio of line intensities was exploited for the determination of electron temperature. An initial electron temperature of 2.35 eV and electron density of 2.5 × 1017 cm−3 were observed. The dependence on electron temperature and density on different experimental parameters such as distance from the target, delay time after the initiation of the plasma, and laser irradiance is also discussed in detail.
