Dear Angel,

to my knowledge there is no easily available Rietveld program with dislocation broadening implemented. Wu et al. (Wu, E., Kisi, E. H. & Gray, E. Mac. A., 1998, J. Appl. Cryst. 31, 363-368) have used their version of Rietica. For the last news on the availability of this program you may contact the authors or Mark Pitt ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) who continues to develop the program.

You may also have a look on the program Maud (http://www.ing.unitn.it/~luttero/maud/index.html), and on the works of P. SCARDI, and M. LEONI, "Whole powder pattern modelling". Acta Crystallographica A58 (2002). 190-200.

You may also do the individual profile fitting, and work then with obtained line breadths. In this case I have a small Fortran program (J. Appl. Cryst. 33, 2000, 997-1005 ), which does the dislocation densities fitting for the selected dislocation systems in the hexagonal case (easily modified for cubic).

Best regards

Radovan

Dear colleages,

Could any of you tell me if there exists a free software to calcalate densities of dislocations from the width or integral breadth of individual the X-ray diffraction profiles?

Regards.

Angel Luis.
