Dear Igoa, I am touched with your kind reply!!
I agree with your opinions as you told me perfectly, the Z difference bewtween hexa and rhombo system, and hexagonal system is more reliable results. That is why I was really confused to refine, and I thought I had to appy the hexagonal system to refine regardless of rhombohderal phase. Is it possible to earn different results depending on the choice of axe, even though it is same structure..?! Anyways, I am going to send our discussion to the fullprof support team on the fullprof homepage. Also, if you feel free and have spare time, you can ask this issue to anyone. I will share any opinion from the support team as soon as I receive. Thanks for your expertise again.

I took a look at your pcr, I don't see anything wrong in your inputs, so I tried to break down the problem: See, the phase fraction (Wj) is calculated as: Wj = Sj.Vj.ATZj/Sum(i)[Si.Vi.ATZi] Where Sj is the scale factor, Vj the cell volume and ATZ = Z.Mw.f^2 / t Where Z is the number of formula units per cell, Mw the molecular weight, f are the transformed occupancies I talked you about before (f = occ*M/m with occ = chemical occupancy, m = site multiplicity and M = general multiplicity). Your ATZ are coherent, for the Hexagonal system you have 738.7585 and for the rhombohedral you have 246.2509, that is exactly 3 times smaller, as it should be from the difference in Z (Z = 1 for R, Z = 3 for H). Now this factor of 3 is never compensated back as far as I can tell. According to the equation of Wj, the only way to compensate it, is with the scale factor Sj, but you have the same scale factor for both phases. I took the liberty to calculate what would you obtain with a scale factor 3 times larger for BaHfTiO3 and 3 times smaller for the other 2 phases, and indeed the results become much more similar than to the hexagonal system, still not the same because the scale factor does not necessarily has to be 3 times larger to accurately compensate because you have the other 2 scale factor of the other two phases). Anyway, I think is not you is the program, and I think that this is a question to take to Rodriguez-Carvajal, if you are interested you can write him yourself or if you allow me I can write on your behalf as this interests me as well. In any case, if you are in a hurry, trust the Hexagonal system result, your pattern is clearly 96 % pure and not 73 %. Apologies I could not be of further help, if you figure something out also let me know please Best, Fernando Igoa PhD student Laboratoire Chimie de la Matière Condensée de Paris Sorbonne Université 4 place Jussieu 75005 PARIS ORCID: orcid.org/0000-0002-3960-4720<https://orcid.org/0000-0002-3960-4720> ResearchGate: researchgate.net/profile/Fernando_Igoa<https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Fernando_Igoa> [https://68ef2f69c7787d4078ac-7864ae55ba174c40683f10ab811d9167.ssl.cf1.rackcdn.com/twitter-icon_24x24.png]: twitter.com/figoa96<https://twitter.com/figoa96> El mié, 10 ago 2022 a la(s) 08:14, 김도연(에너지환경연구팀) (kdo01...@postech.ac.kr<mailto:kdo01...@postech.ac.kr>) escribió: Dear Igoa, I really appreciate your contact and reply !! I attached my pcr files, and you can check my results as I posted. In details, I am researching the perovskite structure on BaTiO3, and I doped Hf into Ti site. While doing refinement, I found that the weight fraction was severe different depending on the choice of axes. Just I want to know and check that we can earn different refinement data depending on the choice of axes. In addition, if I refine hexagonal system, I have to use the crystal structure information from standardized crystal structure data in ICSD? (I attached BaTiO3 rhombohedral phase, ICSD information) or just something wrong in fullprof program? Thus, also if you deal with some materials which are the hexagonal structure, could you try them like me?

Otherwise did you check if the occupations remain the same for the atoms after refining in each system? Like the true chemical occupations, not the occupation number refined in fullprof. Because in fullprof, the refined occupation number is calculated as the chemical occupancy x site multiplicity. Now this may or may not be normalised to the multiplicity of the general position of the group (literally in the manual it says "can be normalised to the multiplicity of the general position of the group"). So it may be that if this is not normalized, and you keep the same occupation numbers, this will change your chemical occupation, hence your weight fraction. Other than that I'm out of clue, if you could share the pcr file it would be of use. Hope it helps, let me know.

When I tried both cases, I put all paramteters with same values in the second impurity like same scale factor, same profile values.. That is why I am getting in the problem on the weight fraction, and I am so confused.. Please share your expertise...
