Dear All,
i am a little bit confused about the magnitudes of the U V W profile parameters
of the caglioti function for instrumental broadening. Is it true, that U and W
are always positiv (larger 0) and V is always smaller 0 (negativ)?
Thanks for your hints and explanations.
Best Regards,
Stefan,
Not really. You should care about full width at half maximum - that should
not be negative in any case. As follows, negative W does not have much
sense. Negative U is also suspicious because it means that at higher angles
your peak width may stop increasing with the 2Theta increase,
Dear Stefan ( all, I suppose),
From the original formulation by Caglioti, et al. U0, V0 W0 for a
nonfocusing neutron CW instrument and describes a parabolic curve with
the minimum at roughly the 2-theta angle that matches the monochromator
take-off (really 2-theta) angle. For a Bragg-Brentano
Dear Yaroslav, Dear Bob and all,
thanks for your hints. I don't have some difficulties with negative FWHM^2.
I try to refine a pattern of LaB6 reference material with GSAS. Data were
obtained with a Siemens D5000 diffractometer. So after refining background,

OBSERVATION: Most of the reported X-ray Rietveld analyses I've seen include
refined values for U, V, W which are dependent on the particular sample of
interest.
As you say below regarding U, V, W: They can be a bit hard to determine
unless a very high quality pattern is used for

In my opinion, the short answer (regarding use of Caglioti parameters) is
that their use is historic and somewhat convenient, but their usual
application is based on no theory whatsoever, and they can be quite
troublesome to apply.

I´d like to read this paper too. So if you could send me a copy, Matthew,
I´d be very pleased.

One has to be careful with the Gaussian parameters, as they add as squares.

Dear all,
In the book The Rietveld Method edited by young, (Page 114 chapter 7,
part 7.2.3) five instrumental contributions were discussed.

1) Source
2) Flat specimen
3) Axial divergence
4) Speciment transparency
5) Receiving slit

How can I get a dislocation density from the X-Ray diffraction analysis
