He found that X rays, when diffracted by crystals, provide clues for calculating the pattern of atoms in a molecule. Using this information, he developed certain films, made of light and dark bands, which, when superimposed on the X-ray picture, make the atomic pattern visible. By enlargement of such a photograph, a molecule can be magnified 250,000,000 times...
