4 Ideal powder Powder averaging Textured sample Preferred orientation

5 how do we describe texture? ODF = f(g) = orientation distribution function f (g) g V(g) V Graphical representation: Polar figures P k (, ) f (g, )d

6 We collect the whole powder spectra using different sample orientation, and then we fit directly a functional form of the ODF P k (, ) f (g, )d

10 Crystal structure analysis Unit cell parameters Space group symmetry Atomic coordinates Atomic displacement parameters

11 XRPD measurements we want to measure the intensity profile in reciprocal space position of diffraction peaks (2, E, ToF d hkl ) intensity ( I hkl F hkl 2 ) peak profile shape ( H(2 ) = f(2 ) g(2 ) ) a correct measurement assumes: the homogeneous spatial distribution of the crystallites in the sample the homogeneous probing of the material by the beam the statistically correct measurement of intensity

25 Experimental geometries probed sample volume geometry commonly implemented instruments laboratory Debye cameras cylindrical Debye-Scherrer or cylindrical geometry parallel- or focusing-beam laboratory goniometers with capillary sample high resolution parallel-beam configurations at synchrotron sources flat-plate curved Bragg-Brentano or parafocusing geometry Guinier or focusing geometry diverging-beam Bragg-Brentano diffractometers Guinier cameras Seeman-Bohlin cameras thin-film focusing-beam goniometers

26 In terms of practical instrumental performance, the parameters to be optimized for specific applications are: Δd/d resolution, that is the ability to separate two contiguous Bragg peaks in reciprocal space. The resolution is generally measured by the Bragg-peak broadening in terms of angular full-width at half maximum (FWHM) as a function of q. Signal/noise ratio, that is the statistical significance of the Bragg-peak intensity over the instrumental background. The signal to noise ratio is commonly greatly enhanced in synchrotron experiments because of the intrinsic collimation of the source beam. Measurement time. The total time of the measurement depends on a number of factors including: the scattering power of the sample, the probed volume of sample, the incident flux, the type and efficiency of the detectors,.
