A previously given analysis of the combined specimen and beam tilt errors in Bond's single-crystal method of determining lattice parameters is extended and used to provide a method of obtaining parameters free from such errors from three separate measurements. The method requires that either the collimator or crystal be tilted by known angles between the measurements. An analytical and a simple graphical method of applying the procedure are described.
