Hi Apu, Your peak looks super-Lorentzian. Super-Lorentzian peak can be due to bimodal distribution (Young, R. A. Sakthivel, A. (1988). J. Appl. Crystallogr.21, 416-425.) or wide Lognormal distribution (Popa, N. C. Balzar, D. (2002). J. Appl. Crystallogr.35, 338–346.). In the latter case,

Echo reducing tube power just reducing intensity which reduces your peak height together with the background level. It won't help on the peak to background ratio. What you need to improve is the beam path. WhenI was checking the low angle beam path, I measured the stage/goniometer

Hi Nelson, The X-ray atomic form factor has a propotion which changes with wavelegnth. So do not apply the relative intensities in Cu radiation in the NIST Certificate on your mearement in Co radiation. Even you simulate a corundum pattern from a Rietveld code under Co radiation, it will be

Hi Nelson, The very fact you see these two options means the software you are using does not provide deserved separated treatments for converting Ka1 and Ka2 lines. It is, most likely, simply applying Bragg's law to convert the 2theta axis only, which assumes Ka2 lines are from separate
