Sir William Lawrence Bragg, CH, OBE, MC, FRS (31 March 1890 – 1 July 1971) was an Australian-born British physicist and X-ray crystallographer, discoverer (1912) of Bragg's law of X-ray diffraction, which is basic for the determination of crystal structure.
Sir Lawrence Bragg was an Australian-born British physicist and X-ray crystallographer, discoverer (1912) of the Bragg law of X-ray diffraction, which is basic for the determination of crystal structure. He was joint winner (with his father, Sir William Bragg) of the Nobel Prize for Physics in.
X-ray data enables scientists to build 3D models of how atoms are arranged in solids. Bragg’s discovery was arguably the most significant experimental breakthrough in twentieth century science. He became the youngest ever winner of a scientific Nobel Prize for his work.
