  2. Max Theodore Felix von Laue (Pfaffendorf, near Koblenz, October 9, 1879 – April 24, 1960 in Berlin) was a German physicist. He demonstrated that X-rays were electromagnetic waves by showing that they produce a diffraction pattern when they pass through a crystal, similar to the pattern light exhibits when it passes through a diffraction grating.

    May 14, 2018 · The German physicist Max von Laue (1879-1960) was the first to use x-rays to study the arrangement of atoms in crystals. His work in x-ray crystallography earned him the Nobel Prize in physics in 1914. Max Theodor Felix von Laue was born on October 9, 1879, in Pfaffendorf, Germany.

  4. Nov 7, 2012 · In the summer of 1912, a 22-year-old graduate student went on holiday with his parents to Britain's Yorkshire coast. There, his father, the physicist William H. Bragg, received a letter describing...

  5. Abstract. In Max von Laue the world has lost one of the great physicists of the period of transition from classical physics to quantum physics. His work can be roughly divided by subject matter into thermodynamics of radiation, optics, including X-ray optics, relativity, and superconductivity.

  7. Nobel Prize in Physics 1914. Like Max Planck and Arnold Sommerfeld, Max von Laue defined the period of transition from classical physics to quantum physics. His best-known contribution, the discovery of the diffraction of X-rays by crystals in 1912, was promptly recognised as fundamental for elucidating the nature of both X-rays and crystals.
