Which outcome occurs the further an X-ray's wavelength approaches the dimension of a crystal lattice?

💡 Explanation

Constructive interference generates diffraction patterns called Bragg peaks when X-ray wavelengths are comparable to the lattice spacing, because the X-rays are scattered by atoms in the lattice. Therefore measurable peaks appear, rather than diffuse scattering from imperfect structures at other mismatch wavelengths.
