X-ray topography is an effective tool to investigate dislocations in semiconductor crystals. Due to low X-ray absorption coefficients of diamond, X-rays can penetrate deep into the crystal. Thus, deep three-dimensional (3D) dislocations are projected on two-dimension (2D) film, which makes dislocation analysis particularly challenging. Dislocation vectors from the films obtained using a set of the same diffraction vectors were identified using topographical and geometrical analyses. The depth and position of the dislocations in a crystal that was projected on a film were determined using geometrical relationship. The proposed analysis method was verified by analyzing several dislocations using four <404> diffraction films. The types of dislocation were identified through Burgers vector analysis.
