AbstractThis research introduces an innovative methodology for the analysis of very thin crystals, utilizing the rainbow scattering, a technique previously unexploited for this application. The focus is on assessing the capabilities of this method for an in-depth investigation of crystalline structures. To characterize the very thin crystals, we implemented numerical simulation techniques to model and evaluate rainbow scattering phenomena under channeling conditions. The simulations aimed to forecast the scattering patterns of protons as they traversed various cubic crystal types at different orientations. We identified distinct patterns of rainbow scattering, providing essential insights into the internal configurations and orientations of the cubic crystals examined. The combination of channeling mode rainbow scattering with numerical simulations presents a fresh and efficient approach for analyzing very thin crystals, setting the stage for subsequent experimental investigations. This advancement holds considerable promise for enhancing research in the fields of materials science and nanotechnology. - FULL TEXT available in PDF.
