PowderN
ComponentGeneral powder sample with many scattering vectors possibility for intrinsic line broadening incoherent backgorund ratio is specified by user. No multiple scattering. No secondary extinction. Based on Powder1/Powder2/Single_crystal. Geometry is a powder filled cylinder or a box. Incoherent scattering is only provided here to account for a background The efficient is highly improved when restricting the vertical scattering range on the Debye-Scherrer cone (with 'd_phi'). The unit cell volume Vc may also be computed when giving the density, the atomic/molecular weight and the number of atoms per unit cell. Example: PowderN(reflections = "c60.lau", d_phi = 15 , radius = 0.01, yheight = 0.05, Vc = 1076.89, sigma_abs = 0, Delta_d=0, DW=1, format=Crystallographica) Powder definition and file format Powder structure is specified with an ascii data file 'reflections'. The powder data are free-text column based files. Lines begining by '#' are read as comments (ignored) but they may contain the following keywords (in the header): #Vc#sigma_abs #sigma_inc #Debye_Waller #Delta_d/d These values are not read if entered as component parameters (Vc=...) The signification of the columns in the numerical block may be set using the 'format' parameter. Built-in formats are: format=Crystallographica format=Fullprof format=Lazy and these specifications it is important NOT to use quotes, as shown. An other possibility to define other formats is to set directly the signification of the columns as a vector of indexes in the order format={j,d,F2,DW,Delta_d/d,1/2d,q,F} Signification of the symbols is given below. Indexes start at 1. Indexes with zero means that the column is not present, so that: Crystallographica={ 4,5,7,0,0,0,0,0 } Fullprof ={ 4,0,8,0,0,5,0,0 } Lazy ={17,6,0,0,0,0,0,13} Here again, NO quotes should be around the 'format' value. At last, the format may be overridden by direct definition of the column indexes in the file itself by using the following keywords in the header (e.g. '#column_j 4'): #column_j #column_d #column_F2 #column_F #column_DW #column_Dd #column_inv2d #column_q
