Determination of the crystal polarity of non-centrosymmetric crystals by comparison of the intensities of Friedel-related pairs of reflections from planes inclined to an extended crystal face is described. Measurements on cubic ZnS are used to illustrate the method. The general case of absorption for a reflection from planes inclined to an extended crystal face is discussed.
