Abstract

A dynamic diffraction theory is developed for describing electron diffraction by dielectric crystals in a strong electromagnetic field. It is shown that additional diffraction maxima arise in an electromagnetic field, their intensity appreciably depending on the field strength. In some cases the intensity of the diffraction maxima is modulated by the electromagnetic field frequency.
