Hey guys,
I just saw your discussion about determining if BCC or FCC structure. I have another general question. What is the reason(s) to crystallize a mater in BCC, FCC or any other crystal structure? Is it just because crystallography concepts or there is any energy related reason? I just...
Hey,
If you want to figure out which peaks are allowable to appear in XRD pattern of your sample, you should know what is crystal structure of the phases. Based on the structural factor of the phases, some crystallographic planes are forbidden in diffraction. For more information, you can read...
Hi Hanif,
What is your material? As I saw your pattern, it has a broad peak in background which can be assigned to an amorphous phase. If you don't know the exact phases, do you have any rough estimation of the elements present in your sample? There are some software like "Match" and "Traces"...
Hey everyone,
I am using MAUD software for Rietveld refinement of XRD patterns. My sample is TiO2. The first peak of both anatase and brookite phases is located at around 25.5 degree (2 theta). As my samples are milled, the XRD peaks have high superimposition. Is there anyone who knows how to...
