Re: Sample damaging during XRD

2017-05-22 Thread Edward Laitila
There should be no damage but you may see a slit change in color where the
beam hits the sample, a temporary change in the color center. I suggest
running your generator at 45 kV and 35 mA you will get more intensity.

Cheers,
Ed

Re: Sample damaging during XRD

2017-05-22 Thread Payzant, E. Andrew
You can run into “interesting” behavior with metastable phases. I once ran a 
sample that gradually transformed from the “high temperature” structure to the 
“low temperature” under x-ray illumination. The two phases were red and yellow, 
so it was very obvious where the x-ray beam had illuminated the powder.

Dear Rietveldrs

Do you know any damaging to sample that may happen during long scanning time 
say (3h).
Specifically in case the  x-ray source is Cu with Ka1+Ka2 that operates under 
40mA and 40kV and the sample is metal oxides

Please suggest on ref or book that elaborate on this topic.

Thanks

Shay
