Dear Rietveld Users,

I would like to find a standard in transmission geometry in order to test the resolution of our futur laboratory diffractometer.

I would like to find a simple coumpound with a relative low absorption from 10 to 20 cm-1 with copper radiation.

I have asked the same question 10 years ago, the answer was some diamond and LiF.

Now I would like to found some organic compound easy to find and cheap with the lowest FWHM.

From the paper involved in the structural determination from powder diffraction data : Solving molecular structure from laboratory X-ray powder diffraction with DASH, the minimum FWHM was 0.080°.

In comparison in reflection mode the lowest FWHM is approximatively 0.040°with LaB6 or a good alumina with any laboratory high resolution diffractometer.

If anyone has an idea.

Thanks in advance,

Best Whishes
