SUMMARY

This discussion focuses on determining Miller indices from X-ray diffraction (XRD) data for YBCO (Yttrium Barium Copper Oxide) with lattice parameters a = 3.82 Å, b = 3.89 Å, and c = 11.68 Å. Users are advised to utilize software tools that can analyze XRD data and compare it with the International Crystal Structure Database (ICSD). Recommended tools include offline software capable of graph analysis, such as X31, which can assist in identifying discrepancies between the sample and ideal lattice parameters.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of Miller indices and their significance in crystallography
  • Familiarity with X-ray diffraction (XRD) techniques
  • Knowledge of YBCO material properties and lattice parameters
  • Experience with software for crystallographic data analysis
NEXT STEPS
  • Research how to use the International Crystal Structure Database (ICSD) for comparison of crystal data
  • Learn to operate X31 software for analyzing XRD graphs
  • Study the principles of Miller indices calculation in crystallography
  • Explore additional software options for XRD data analysis
USEFUL FOR

Researchers, materials scientists, and crystallographers working with YBCO or similar materials, as well as anyone involved in analyzing XRD data for crystallographic studies.

Hi,

Im new to this forum. I was hoping someone could suggest a free program or how I could determine the miller index's from XRD data. I know roughly what they should be by knowing the material we fabricated, YBCO a = 3.82, b = 3.89, and c = 11.68 Å.

Many thanks in advance

Ok so maybe i wasn't very clear. I have the data from XRD on a sample we fabricated. It is YBCO, what I would like to know is how to determine the difference between my sample and the ideal a, b, c lattice parameters a = 3.82, b = 3.89, and c = 11.68 Å?

Again many thanks in advance
 
every crystals data can be compared with data in international crystal database... you can find a software were u can open the ICSD data and compare it with your data.

and to determine your structures data you can download any offline softwares which can analyse your graph(for ex: X31 might be helpful)

all the best.
