Global Rietveld Refinement
نویسنده
چکیده
Global optimisation methods of structure determination from powder diffraction data have risen to prominence in a relatively short space of time and they now constitute a key approach in the examination of polycrystalline molecular organic materials. A correctly formulated global optimisation approach may be regarded as a "global Rietveld refinement" that is capable of delivering accurate crystal structures from high-quality powder diffraction data. This paper focuses on how accuracy at all stages of a powder diffraction experiment impacts upon the overall structure solution process and particular attention is paid to assessing the degree of accuracy with which structures are returned from the global optimisation process.

Morphological and Crystallographic Characterization of Nanoparticles by Granulometry Image Analysis and Rietveld Refinement Methods
The particle size distribution of the resultant cobalt ferrite samples was determined from Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) images using the granulometry image analysis method. Results showed the nanosized particles of the samples. The X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) patterns of samples were also analyzed by Rietveld refinement method. The results indicated that the precipitated sample at 95 <sup...

SrRietveld: a program for automating Rietveld refinements for high-throughput powder diffraction studies
SrRietveld is a highly automated software toolkit for Rietveld refinement. Compared to traditional refinement programs, it is more efficient to use and easier to learn. It is designed for modern high-throughput diffractometers and is capable of processing large numbers of data sets with minimal effort. The software currently uses conventional Rietveld refinement engines, automating GSAS and Ful...

متن کاملRietveld Refinement with Xrd and Nd: Analysis of Metastable Qandilite-like Structures
Binary oxides of Mg and Ti were prepared by the sol-gel technique in various Mg/Ti atomic ratios, r. Metastable phases, produced between 873 and 973 K from xerogels with Mg/Ti atomic ratios in the range ~1.1 < r ≤ 2, were studied by XRD and ND. XRD analysis showed crystal structures similar to that of Mg2TiO4 (qandilite), an inverse spinel of cubic structure. The composition range where this oc...
