A relatively large sample is seen in the boule of a growth and cut free using a wire saw. This sample is polished and is measured several times with Laue X-ray technique until an image is seen. Eventually, a coherent, four-fold symmetric pattern is seen, but the sample was polished too much and was destroyed in the process.enPresentation
