Pamela Whitfield Canadian Powder Diffraction WorkshopĢ Horses for Courses… Data quality required depends on what you want to do with it Phase-ID has less stringent requirements on both sample prep and data collection Quantitative phase analysis, Rietveld analysis and structure solution require careful sample prep but can require different data collection regimes I’ll mostly cover requirements for phase ID but will touch on considerations for other techniques… I did a presentation last week concentrating more on quantitative analysis if you’re interested just ask and you can have a copyģ Questions to ask What is in your sample? How much have you got? 1 Sample Preparation, Data Collection and Phase-ID using Powder XRD
